Some men have a Ptolemaic notion of life; their little earth is
the center around which all things move. If I have been of that
sort, I will remember that the age has outgrown that. It is time
to reconstruct one’s life on the Copernican theory, admitting
that ours is only a little earth in the great universe, and
finding our true solar center in the great moral gravitation of
the divine love.--FRANKLIN NOBLE, D.D., “Sermons in
Illustration.”
