I have so much to do that I shall spend the first three hours in prayer.

The Bible is the proper book for men. There the truth is distinguished from error far more clearly than anywhere else, and one finds something new in it every day. For twenty-eight years, since I became a doctor, I have now constantly read and preached the Bible; and yet I have not exhausted it but find something new in it every day.

One drop of Christ's blood is worth more than heaven and earth.

The bible is the cradle that holds the Christ, without him it is nothing more than wood and straw.

In many countries there are particular places to which devils more especially resort. In Prussia there is an infinite number of evil spirits.

Look to it that you do not try to do all of it, do not try to do too much, lest your spirit grow weary. Besides, a good prayer mustn't be too long. Do not draw it out. Prayer ought to be frequent and fervent.

The true despisers of the world are the people who accept what God sends them, gratefully use all things when they have them, and gladly do without them if God takes them away
