I'll go anywhere as long as it's forward.

I determined never to stop until I had come to the end and achieved my purpose.

If a commission by an earthly king is considered a honor, how can a commission by a Heavenly King be considered a sacrifice?

I have found that I have no unusual endowments of intellect, but this day I resolve that I will be an uncommon Christian.

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".

It is hard to work for years with pure motives, and all the time be looked upon by most of those to whom our lives are devoted as having some sinister object in view.

All I can say in my solitude is, May Heaven's rich blessing come down on every one - American, English, Turk - who will help to heal this open sore of the world.
