One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.

To speak of God, to think of God, is in every respect to show what one is made of. I have always wagered against God and I regard the little that I have won in this world as simply the outcome of this bet. However paltry may have been the stake (my life) I am conscious of having won to the full. Everything that is doddering, squint-eyed, vile, polluted and grotesque is summoned up for me in that one word: God!

Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals; but enjoy to the full the resources that are within thy reach.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
(NIV)

One's prime is elusive. You little girls, when you grow up, must be on the alert to recognize your prime at whatever time of your life it may occur. You must then live it to the full.

Men of age object too much, consult too long, adventure too little, repent too soon, and seldom drive business home to the full period, but content themselves with a mediocrity of success.

We are healed from suffering only by experiencing it to the full

Philippians 4:19:
And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
(NIV)
And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
(AMP)
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
(KJV)

What profits a man if he keeps his eternal soul when he could have lived life to the full and been forgiven at the end of it all anyway?
