A man knows no more in religion than he loves and embraceth with the affections of his soul.

It is better to go bruised to heaven than sound to hell.

A man may be a false prophet and yet speak the truth.

It is good to divert our sorrow for other things to the root of all, which is sin. Let our grief run most in that channel, that as sin bred grief, so grief may consume sin.
