It is my desire to show my attachment to the cause of Him who died for me by devoting my life to His service.

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.

He who died for us, and Whom we ought to copy, did more for us than we can do for any one else. He endured the contradiction of sinners. We should have grace to follow in His steps.

Fastings and vigils without a special object in view are time run to waste.

If you have men who will only come if they know there is a good road, I don't want them. I want men who will come if there is no road at all.

This generation can only reach this generation.

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