If good preaching could save the world, it would have been done long ago.

I am an old-fashioned preacher of the old-time religion, that has warmed this cold world's heart for two thousand years.

Sinners cannot find God for the same reason that criminals cannot find a policeman: They aren't looking!

Listen, if I heard shrieks and cries coming from a house and I ran in there and I found a great big broad shouldered whiskey soaked Joe weasel, dragging his wife about by the hair, and over here, two children are unconscious from his blows and kicks and another one screaming in terror, do you think I would apologize for being there? No! I'd knock 7 kinds of pork out of that old hog.

There is no law, divine or human, that the saloon respects.

The devil says I'm out, but the Lord says I'm safe.

There is nothing in the world of art like the songs mother used to sing.
