“Pray as though everything depended on the Lord and work as though everything depended on you.”

“If you don't feel like praying, pray until you do!”

“The Americans as a nation are killing themselves with their vices and high living. As much as a man ought to eat in half an hour they swallow in three minutes gulping down their food like the [dog] under the table which when a chunk of meat is thrown down to it swallows it before you can say 'twice.' If you want a reform carry out the advice I have just given you. Dispense with your multitudinous dishes, and, depend upon it, you will do much towards preserving your families from sickness, disease and death.”

“Pray as though everything depends on God. And work as if everything depends on you.”

“It is our duty to improve upon every blessing the Lord gives to us.”

“It is for us to do those things which the Lord requires at our hands, and leave the result with him.”

“[Our] first and foremost duty [is] to seek the Lord until we open the path of communication from God to our own soul.”
