  • Arguments about Scripture achieve nothing but a stomachache and a headache.
  • He who lives only to benefit himself confers on the world a benefit when he dies.
  • Hope is patience with the lamp lit.
  • Nothing that is God's is obtainable by money.
  • You cannot parcel out freedom in pieces because freedom is all or nothing.
