Quotes
- “I have learned by experience that no man's character can be eventually injured but by his own acts.”
- “Unless you live in Christ, you are dead to God.”
- “I do not want the walls of separation between different orders of Christians to be destroyed, but only lowered, that we may shake hands a little easier over them.”
- “We can do more good by being good than in any other way.”
- “But I am unable to reach the lofty theme; — yet I do not think that the smallest fish that swims in the boundless ocean ever complains of the immeasurable vastness of the deep. So it is with me, I can plunge with my puny capacity, into a subject, the immensity of which I shall never be able fully to comprehend.”
- “Prayer is the breath of a new-born soul, and there can be no Christian life without it.”
