It has been said, that no great work in literature or in science was ever wrought by a man who did not love solitude. We may lay it down as an elemental principle of religion, that no large growth in holiness was ever gained, by one who did not take time to be often, and long, alone with God.
Taken from the book The Still Hour: Communion with God in Prayer by Austen Phelps 1859
