All that I am I owe to Jesus Christ, revealed to me in His divine Book.

If you knew the satisfaction of performing such a duty, as well as the gratitude to God which the missionary must always feel, in being chosen for so noble, so sacred a calling, you would have no hesitation in embracing it.

Cannot the love of Christ carry the missionary where the slave-trade carries the trader? I shall open up a path to the interior or perish.

Shall I tell you what supported me through all those years of exile among a people whose language I could not understand and whose attitude towards me we always uncertain and often hostile? It was this: "Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world".

Death alone will put a stop to my effort!

If we have not enough in our religion . . . to share it with all the world, it is doomed here at home.

Christ alone can save the world, but Christ cannot save the world alone.
