I have found that I have no unusual endowments of intellect, but this day I resolve that I will be an uncommon Christian.

God, send me anywhere, only go with me. Lay any burden on me, only sustain me. And sever any tie in my heart except the tie that binds my heart to Yours.

If a commission by an earthly king is considered a honor, how can a commission by a Heavenly King be considered a sacrifice?

I'd rather be in the heart of Africa in the will of God, than on the throne of England, out of the will of God.

If you have men who will only come if they know there is a good road, I don't want them. I want men who will come if there is no road at all.

People talk of the sacrifice I have made in spending so much of my life in Africa. It is emphatically no sacrifice. Say rather it is a privilege.

There is one safe and happy place, and that is in the will of God.

I determined never to stop until I had come to the end and achieved my purpose.

Without Christ, not one step; with Him, anywhere!

I'll go anywhere as long as it's forward.

Hope was always out ahead of fact, possibility obscured the outlines of reality.

The Christian is a man who can be certain about the ultimate even when he is most uncertain about the immediate.

Tell me that you refuse to allow me to be so stupid. Tell me that you will not tolerate this relationship being over just when it was on the verge of really taking off.

My life isn't focused on results. My life is really focused on the process of doing all the things I'm doing, from work to relationships to friendships to charitable work.

We've been beaten before but never defeated. Tonight we were defeated.

I was lucky enough to win the Davis Cup in my first year in 1999. I won my first slam at the U.S. Open in 2001 and became world No. 1 later that year. By the age of 20, I'd done it all.

Don't waste your death on a half assed life

The idea that all problems either have a solution or can be shown to be pseudo-problems is not one I share.

As much wrong as I did in life and as many people as I hurt, I can say that God never stopped talking to me. I just stopped listening.

I'd like to live in a world where immigration is just called moving.
