Quotemeal: Aug. 5th, 1957

Monday, August 5, 1957

"Unless we know the difference between flowers and weeds, we are not fit to take care of a garden. It is not enough to have truth planted in our minds. We must learn and labor to keep the ground clear of thorns and briars, follies and perversities, which have a wicked propensity to choke the word of life."
— Clyde Francis Lytle
