This, then, is the doctrine of the resurrection. We do not believe--at least I do not--that law has been rudely violated in one extraordinary and unparalleled episode. We believe that a universal law of life, overmastering death, and always superior to it, has had once a visible witness.

Of all things in the world that stink in the nostrils of men, hypocrisy is the worst.

I believe that when Paul plants and Apollos waters, God gives the increase; and I have no patience with those who throw the blame on God when it belongs to themselves.

Faith is led confidently to expect what reason would never suggest.

Prayers are heard in heaven in proportion to our faith. Little faith gets very great mercies, but great faith still greater.

Nonsense is nonsense whether it rhymes or not, just as bad half-pennies are good for nothing whether they jingle or lie quiet.

The glory of the salvation of souls belongs to God, and to Him alone.
