A Christian making money fast is just a man in a cloud of dust, it will fill his eyes if he be not careful.

Good thoughts are blessed guests, and should be heartily welcomed, well fed, and much sought after. Like rose leaves, they give out a sweet smell if laid up in the jar of memory.

It is not all darkness in a heart which can cry, "My God".

If any man will preach as he should preach, his work will take more out of him than any other labor under heaven.

Men are in a restless pursuit after satisfaction and earthly things. They have no forethought for their eternal state, the present hour absorbs them. They turn to another and another of earth's broken cisterns, hoping to find water, where not a drop was ever discovered yet.

I cannot conceive of a greater wounding of the heart of Christ than to pay reverence to anything in the shape of a cross, or to bow before a crucifix!

I know of nothing which I would choose to have as the subject of my ambition for life than to be kept faithful to my God till death.
