Martin LutherI was born to fight devils and factions. It is my business to remove obstacles, to cut down thorns, to fill up quagmires and to open and make straight paths. If I must have some failing let me rather speak the truth with too great sincerity than once to act the hypocrite and conceal the truth.
Martin LutherSin cannot tear you away from him [Christ] even though you commit adultery a hundred times a day and commit as many murders.
Martin Luther
