You'll never make a good impression on other people until you stop thinking what sort of impression you make.

I believe that there are too many practitioners in the church, who are not believers.

The humblest praise most, while cranks & malcontents praise least. Praise almost seems to be inner health made audible

I think that if God forgives us we must forgive ourselves. Otherwise, it is almost like setting up ourselves as a higher tribunal than Him.

I have been trying to make the reader believe that we actually are, at present, creatures whose character must be, in some respects, a horror to God, as it is, when we really see it, a horror to ourselves. This I believe to be a fact: and I notice that the holier a man is, the more fully he is aware of that fact.

The Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next.

God has infinite attention to spare for each one of us.
