The Pope is a mere tormentor of conscience. The assembly of his greased and religious crew in praying was altogether like the croaking of frogs, which edified nothing at all.

The fewer the words, the better the prayer.

So preach that those who do not fall out with their sins may fall out with thee.

It is impossible to separate works from faith- yea, just as impossible as to separate burning and shining from fire.

The whole being of any Christian is faith and love. Faith brings the person to God, love brings the person to people.

If I did not see that the Lord kept watch over the ship, I should long since have abandoned the helm. But I see Him! - through the storm, strengthening the tackling, handling the yards, spreading the sails - yes more, commanding the very winds! Should I not be a coward if I abandoned my post? Let Him govern, let Him carry us forward, let Him hasten or delay; we will fear nothing!

I cannot neglect prayer for a single day.
