- Let's quit fiddling with religion and do something to bring the world to Christ.
- If you want to drive the devil out of the world, hit him with a cradle instead of a crutch.
- I'm against sin. I'll kick it as long as I've got a foot, and I'll fight it as long as I've got a fist. I'll butt it as long as I've got a head. I'll bite it as long as I've got a tooth. And when I'm old and fistless and footless and toothless, I'll gum it till I go home to Glory and it goes home to perdition!
- Churches don't need new members half so much as they need the old bunch made over.
- Look into the preaching Jesus did and you will find it was aimed straight at the big sinners on the front seats.
