“Arguments about Scripture achieve nothing but a stomachache and a headache.”

It is certain because it is possible.

A man becomes a Christian, he is not born one.

The blood of the Christians is seed.

We say, and we say openly, and while ye torture us, mangled and gory we cry out, “We worship God through Christ!” Believe Him a man: it is through Him and in Him that God willeth Himself to be known and worshipped.

It’s a great honour to have the nickname of Iceman, it makes me feel very proud of my achievements.

We cannot achieve greatness unless we lose all interest in being great.

Don’t loaf and invite inspiration; light out after it with a club, and if you don’t get it you will nonetheless get something that looks remarkably like it.
