Let us not sleep like others, but let us watch and be sober, for temporal desires are to the eternal goods as the images of a dream are to true pictures. Therefore sleep now is nothing but love and desire for creatures. But to be wakeful is to hold to the eternal good and to seek it and long for it.—Martin Luther, The Seven Penitential Psalms
In each of my friends there is something that only some other friend can fully bring out. By myself I am not large enough to call the whole man into activity; I want other lights than mine own to show all his facets.—Lewis, Business of Heaven, p. 159
