Straight praying is never born of crooked conduct.

The reformer is one who with clarion voice will call the ministry back to it's knees.

The Church is looking for better methods; God is looking for better men.

To say prayers in a decent, delicate way is not heavy work. But to pray really, to pray till hell feels the ponderous stroke, to pray till the iron gates of difficulty are opened, till the mountains of obstacles are removed, till the mists are exhaled and the clouds are lifted, and the sunshine of a cloudless day brightens-this is hard work, but it is God's work, and man's best labor.

God shapes the world by prayer. Prayers are deathless. They outlive the lives of those who uttered them.

The little estimate we put on prayer is evidence from the little time we give to it.

God shapes the world by prayer. Prayers are deathless. The lips that uttered them may be closed to death, the heart that felt them may have ceased to beat, but the prayers live before God, and God's heart is set on them and prayers outlive the lives of those who uttered them; they outlive a generation, outlive an age, outlive a world.
