“Retrospective analysis is not a useful guide to current problems.”

“It is never too late to apply good sense as a corrective to stupidity.”

“For they speak of Christ, not that they may preach Christ, but that they may reject Christ; and they speak of the law, not that they may establish the law, but that they may proclaim things contrary to it.”

“It is not that I want merely to be called a Christian, but to actually be one. Yes, if I prove to be one, then I can have the name...Come fire, cross, battling with wild beasts, wrenching of bones, mangling of limbs, crushing of my whole body, cruel tortures of the Devil--Only let me get to Jesus Christ!”

“When we lift our hands in praise and worship, we break spiritual jars of perfume over Jesus. The fragrance of our praise fills the whole earth and touches the heart of God.”

“My birth is imminent. Forgive me, brethren. Do not prevent me from coming to life.– As he faced the prospect of being devoured by wild beasts for his faith”

“Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam.”
