An unjust acquisition is like a barbed arrow, which must be drawn backward with horrible anguish, or else will be your destruction.

God is everywhere present by His power. He rolls the orbs of heaven with His hand; He fixes the earth with His foot; He guides all creatures with His eye, and refreshes them with His influence; He makes the powers of hell to shake with His terrors, and binds the devils with His word.

He that is choice of his time will be choice of his company, and choice of his actions.

The best theology is rather a divine life than a divine knowledge.

Whatsoever we beg of God, let us also work for it.

The private and personal blessings we enjoy- the blessings of immunity, safeguard, liberty and integrity- deserve the thanksgiving of a whole life.

This grace (purity of intention) is so excellent that it sanctifies the most common actions of our life and yet is so necessary that without it, the very best actions of our devotion are imperfect and vicious.
