"Error moves with quick feet and truth must never be lagging behind."
Henry Ward Beecher
"The real democratic American idea is, not that every man shall be on a level with every other man, but that every man shall have liberty to be what God made him, without hindrance."
George Mueller
“It is a common temptation of Satan to make us give up the reading of the Word and prayer when our enjoyment is gone; as if it were of no use to read the Scriptures when we do not enjoy them, and as if it were no use to pray when we have no spirit of prayer.”
Samuel Ajayi Crowther
"Imitate Christ, then, to reach the understanding, and not to move the feelings only; speak to the people as they are able to bear it; speak to them with the simplicity as to children."
John Henry Newman
"A religious mind is ever looking out of itself, is ever recalling to itself Him on whom it depends, and who is the centre of all truth and good... The dividing line between God and the world goes through each man's heart. The worldly man is one whose heart is so earthbound that he has forgotten that he is made for heaven... The sinner would not enjoy heaven if he went there; not til he has turned from his sin and is once more looking towards God."
Sojourner Truth
"But I believe in the next world. When we get up yonder, we shall have all them rights 'stored to us again."
Charles Finney
"A revival may be expected when Christians have a spirit of prayer for a revival. That is, when they pray as if their hearts were set upon it. When Christians have the spirit of prayer for a revival. When they go about groaning out their hearts desire. When they have real travail of soul."
John Henry Hopkins
"O star of wonder, star of night, Star with royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light."
Joseph Mohr
"Silent night, holy night, / All is calm, all is bright / Round yon virgin mother and child. / Holy infant, so tender and mild, / Sleep in heavenly peace, / Sleep in heavenly peace."
