Quotes

  • In answer to your inquiry, I consider that the chief dangers which confront the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and heaven without hell.
  • It is against stupidity in every shape and form that we have to wage our eternal battle. But how can we wonder at the want of sense on the part of those who have had no advantages, when we see such plentiful absence of that commodity on the part of those who have had all the advantages?
  • Look after the homeless women and children or I'll come haunt you.
  • Look! Don't be deceived by appearances -- men and things are not what they seem. All who are not on the rock are in the sea!
  • Tainted money...t'ain't enough.
