Sympathy is no substitute for action.

Do not think me mad. It is not to make money that I believe a Christian should live. The noblest thing a man can do is, just humbly to receive, and then go amongst others and give.

People talk of the sacrifice I have made in spending so much of my life in Africa. Can that be called a sacrifice which is simply paid back as a small part of a great debt owing to our God, which we can never repay? All these are nothing when compared with the glory which shall be revealed in and for us. I never made a sacrifice.

Death alone will put a stop to my effort!

In this service I hope to live; in it I wish to die!

The best remedy for a sick church is to put it on a missionary diet.

I view the end of the geographical feat as the beginning of the missionary enterprise.
