"We are hunger-points in the universe; the elemental fact in every human life is desire. To a man who disclaims any act of prayer we retort, 'Your life is an organized prayer. Your body craves food, your mind craves knowledge, your affection craves friendship, your spirit craves peace and hope. You do not pray? Rather every stroke of work and every purposeful thought are endeavors to satisfy inward prayers."
Harry Emerson Fosdick in The Meaning of Prayer p.143
