Can you see air you breathe? Can you see the force that moves the tides or changes the seasons or sends the birds to a winter haven?
Can you with all your knowledge be so foolish? Oh, you can’t carve God in stone. You can’t limit him to a temple. You can’t imprison him on a mountaintop.
Heaven is his throne; earth, his footstool. Everything you see is his. Empires will rise and empires will fall. Only God prevails.
Francine Rivers, A Voice in the Wind (via worshipgifs)

My dearest Mary, if you’re reading this, then you are leaving France to reclaim your Scottish throne. I always knew this day would come, and I wish I could be at your side as you set sail to take back what is yours. In the darkest of times, you were my conscience. Your heart was a light, Mary, and it burned so very bright for France. No matter how far you go, that light will burn forever. I have left you a gift, something I made for you to fight for what is yours, and for what you know in your heart is right.
I love you, Mary Stuart. Forever.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
