“Truly I was born to be an example of misfortune, and a target at which the arrows of adversary are aimed.”

“Expectation is like an arrow if it misses the target it aims back at you with double force.”

“We need to be shaping our kids into arrows that will fly straight to the target God has set for them. If we're not carefully shaping and aiming our arrows, others will try to steal them and shape them for their use. What's worse, they will aim our children at targets of their own choosing. We should never be surprised if we are wounded by the members of our own family, if we have allowed sworn enemies of Christ to aim them.”

“The trouble with a target-rich environment is that it's useless if you don't know which target you have to aim at.”

“If I have a bow and arrow, Commander, I don't shoot a padded shaft to my target's left in order to express my annoyance. I fire a steel-tipped arrow into his leg.”

“There was no harm in taking aim, even if the target was a dream.”
