Faith consists, not in ignorance, but in knowledge, and that, not only of God, but also of the divine will.

Whenever our sins press hard against us, whenever Satan would drive us to despair, we must hold up this shield, that God does not want us to be overwhelmed in everlasting destruction, for He has ordained His Son to be the salvation of the world.

Whoever is not satisfied with Christ alone, strives after something beyond absolute perfection.

I have never seen either a drop of piety or a grain of truth or ingenuousness - nay, I have never found common sense in any Jew.

It is a most blessed thing to be subject to the sovereignty of God.

God tolerates even our stammering, and pardons our ignorance whenever something inadvertently escapes us - as, indeed, without this mercy there would be no freedom to pray.
