Wisdom from G. K. Chesterton

 
 
 

Pessimism is not in being tired of evil but in being tired of good. Despair does not lie in being weary of suffering, but in being weary of joy.

—G. K. Chesterton

INCARNATE REALITY

Considered by many to be Chesterton’s greatest masterpiece of all his writings, this is his whole view of world history as informed by the Incarnation.
