Prayer is the acid test of devotion.

It is wonderful what God can do with a broken heart, if He gets all the pieces.

Prayer turns ordinary mortals into men of power. It brings power. It brings fire. It brings rain. It brings life. It brings God.

Satan laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.

It takes us long to learn that prayer is more important than organization, more powerful than armies, more influential than wealth and mightier than all learning.

There is no better way to serve others than to pray for them. There is nothing about which I do not pray. I go over all my life in the presence of God. All my problems are solved there.

The root-trouble of the present distress is that the Church has more faith in the world and the flesh than in the Holy Ghost.

True prayer is a lonely business.

A season of silence is the best preparation for speech with God.

Confusion and impotence are the inevitable results when the wisdom and resources of the world are substituted for the presence and power of the Spirit.

The Church gives more time, thought, and money to recreation and sport than to prayer.

Tracer lighting up the sky.It's another families' turn to die.A child afraid to even cry out says, He has been here.And I see no bravery, No bravery in your eyes anymore.Only sadness.

I have lived to see that being seventeen is no protection against becoming seventy, but to know this needs the experience of a lifetime, for no imagination copes with it.

It took me some twenty-plus years to really learn how to program.

Sometimes it was hard to express how much you loved someone. You said the words, but you could never quite capture the depth of it. You could never quite hold someone tightly enough.

My wife has been my greatest earthly inspiration. She excels in eloquence, the poetry of words, empathy and graciousness.

As soon as things become predictable, they become boring.

I stand behind everything I say and do.

You get an image in the first couple of years of your career, and then whether you like it or not, you are stuck with it for the rest of your life.

I did not enter the Labour Party 47 years ago to have our manifesto written by Dr Mori, Dr Gallup and Mr Harris

Coercion may prevent many transgressions; but it robs even actions which are legal of a part of their beauty. Freedom may lead to many transgressions, but it lends even to vices a less ignoble form.
