Let it never be forgotten that, although we may do nothing about the Word we hear, the Word will do something to us. The same sun melts ice and hardens clay, and the Word of God humbles or hardens the human heart.

Vance Havner

Have a heart that never hardens

Charles Dickens

So the smart brain must be balanced with a warm heart, a good heart -a sense of responsibility, of concern for the well-being of others.

Dalai Lama

I can't leave India helpless. This responsibility must be taken and I will continue to do so. For all good and bad things, it is my responsibility. I do not regret anything. I believe, people of the country have given me the responsibility and I must fulfill it.

Narendra Modi

Humor hardens the heart, at least to the point of sanity.

Agnes Repplier

How surely a knowledge of the world hardens the heart!

Pedro Calderon de la Barca

Contact with the world either breaks or hardens the heart.

Nicolas Chamfort

Argument does not soften, but rather hardens, the obdurate heart.

Orville Dewey

Nothing so hardens the heart of man as a barren familiarity with sacred things.

J. C. Ryle

The possession of unlimited power corrodes the conscience, hardens the heart, and confounds the understanding.

Lord Acton

If our theology does not quicken the conscience and soften the heart, it actually hardens both.

J. I. Packer

Sin penetrates to the heart, darkens and hardens it until it extinguishes the light of belief. Each sin has a path that leads to unbelief. Unless that sin is swiftly obliterated by seeking God's forgiveness, it grows from a worm into a snake that gnaws at the heart.

Said Nursi

Pain hardens, and great pain hardens greatly, whatever the comforters say, and suffering does not ennoble, though it may occasionally lend a certain rigid dignity of manner to the suffering frame.

A. S. Byatt

Europe - and in particular Germany - must assume more responsibility. We must be ready to take on this responsibility and that has consequences domestically. That means, for example, we must be ready to spend more money on defense at home and abroad.

Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer

The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing. We feel it in a thousand things. I say that the heart naturally loves the Universal Being, and naturally loves itself; and it gives itself to one or the other, and hardens itself against one or the other, as it chooses...it is the heart that feels God, not the reason; this is faith.

Blaise Pascal

When you're training every day, you kind of have to have the eye of the tiger. It's like eat, sleep, you've got to be like chewing on steel kind of thing for six weeks. It hardens your body, hardens your mind.

Rory MacDonald
