Quotes About Alone

Jews and Gentiles, learned and unlearned, kings and poor men--all alike must either be saved by the Lord Jesus, or lost forever.

Freedom is not a reward or a decoration that you toast in champagne. On the contrary, it's hard graft and a long-distance run, all alone, very exhausting.

You knew nothing about that, nothing at all, and if the mainspring failed there was no cure. Wasn't it insane?
