“The Church is looking for better methods; God is looking for better men.”

“God's plan is to make much of the man, far more of him than of anything else. Men are God's method. The Church is looking for better methods; God is looking for better men. ”

“What the Church needs to-day is not more machinery or better, not new organizations or more and novel methods, but men whom the Holy Ghost can use -- men of prayer, men mighty in prayer. The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods, but through men. He does not come on machinery, but on men. He does not anoint plans, but men -- men of prayer.”

“The purpose of the church is to make bad men good and good men better.”

“I looked up at the dark sky and prayed to God for a better break in life and a better chance to do something for the little people I loved. ”

“Things that look impossible suddenly seem a lot better, once you get God on board.”
