There was a castle called Doubting Castle, the owner whereof was Giant Despair.

Then I saw that there was a way to hell, even from the gates of heaven.

To go back is nothing but death; but to go forward is fear of death and life everlasting beyond.

I saw a man clothed with rags . . . a book in his hand, and a great burden upon his back.

Though there is not always grace where there is the fear of hell, yet, to be sure, there is no grace where there is no fear of God.

We know not the matter of the things for which we should pray, neither the object to whom we pray, nor the medium by or through whom we pray; none of these things know we, but by the help and assistance of the Spirit.

To-despise the world is the way to enjoy heaven; and blessed are they who delight to converse with God by prayer.
