That which the sober man keeps in his breast, the drunken man lets out at the lips. Astute people, when they want to ascertain a man's true character, make him drunk.
Martin LutherI did not learn my theology all at once, but had to search constantly deeper and deeper for it. My temptations did that for me, for no one can understand Holy Scripture without practice and temptations...I t is not by reading, writing, or speculation that one becomes a theologian. Nay, rather, it is living, dying, and being damned that makes one a theologian.
Martin LutherI would not give one moment of heaven for all the joy and riches of the world, even if it lasted for thousands and thousands of years.
Martin LutherThe truth is mightier than eloquence, the Spirit greater than genius, faith more than education.
