A principle is the expression of perfection, and as imperfect beings like us cannot practice perfection, we devise every moment limits of its compromise in practice.

Prayer is not an old woman's idle amusement. Properly understood and applied, it is the most potent instrument of action. Prayer is a confession of one's own unworthiness and weakness.

An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.

Confession of errors is like a broom which sweeps away the dirt and leaves the surface brighter and clearer. I feel stronger for confession.

If patience is worth anything, it must endure to the end of time. And a living faith will last in the midst of the blackest storm.

God sometimes does try to the uttermost those whom he wishes to bless.

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.

Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.
