More Quotes from Thomas Malcolm Muggeridge:
The only ultimate disaster that can befall us, I have come to realize, is to feel ourselves at home here on earth.Thomas Malcolm Muggeridge
As Man alone, Jesus could not have saved us, as God alone, he would not Incarnate, he could and did.
Thomas Malcolm Muggeridge
Where, then, does happiness lie In forgetfulness, not indulgence, of the self. In escape from sensual appetites, not in their satisfaction. We live in a dark, self-enclosed prison, which is all we see or know if our glance is fixed ever downward. To lift it upward, becoming aware of the wide, luminous universe outside this alone is happiness. At its highest level, such happiness is the ecstasy that mystics have inadequately described. At more humdrum levels, it is human love the delights and beauties of our dear earth, its colors and shapes and sounds the enchantment of understanding and laughing, and all other exercise of such faculties as we possess the marvel of the meaning of everything, fitfully glimpsed, inadequately expounded, but ever present.

I never met a rich man who was happy, but I have only very occasionally met a poor man who did not want to become a rich man.
