“Ask a lot, but take what is offered”
Russian Proverb
“Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us. It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.”
William Barclay

Bible
“It takes a certain level of aspiration before one can take advantage of opportunities that are clearly offered.”
Michael Harrington
“The cat does not offer services. The cat offers itself. Of course he wants care and shelter. You don't buy love for nothing.”

“Offer them what they secretly want and they of course immediately become panic-stricken.”
