“Satan has no power over us except as we give it to him. God never forces us to do right, and Satan has no power to force us to do wrong.”

“There is one thing the power of God and the power of Satan have in common: Neither can influence us unless we allow them to.”

“No ability, no strength and force, no power of intellect or power of wealth, shall avail us, if we have not the root of right living in us.”

“Satan fools and feigns, blows and bluffs, and we so often take his threats to heart and forget the "exceeding greatness of God's power to us.”

“We must begin to believe that God, in the mystery of prayer, has entrusted us with a force that can move the Heavenly world, and can bring its power down to earth.”

“Consequently, if you believe God made Satan, you must realize that all Satan's power comes from God and so that Satan is simply God's child, and that we are God's children also. There are no children of Satan, really.”
