Gaining the World Pretty Sport
Mark 8:36-37
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?…


This world is like the boy's butterfly — it is pretty sport to chase it; but bruise its wings by an over-earnest grasp, and it is nothing but a disappointment.

(C. H. Spurgeon.)
