The moral and religious system which Jesus Christ transmitted to us is the best the world has ever seen, or can see.

All who think cannot but see there is a sanction like that of religion which binds us in partnership in the serious work of the world.

When religious people quarrel about religion, or hungry people about their victuals, it looks as if they had not much of either about them

Christianity commands us to pass by injuries; policy, to let them pass by us

Aim at Heaven and you will get Earth 'thrown in': aim at Earth and you will get neither.

I held my heart back from positively accepting anything, since I was afraid of another fall, and in this condition of suspense I was being all the more killed.
