True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency. Make it a habit, and when the need arises you will be in practice.

There are three of you. There is the person you think you are. There is the person others think you are. There is the person God knows you are and can be through Christ.

A prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian.

Be assured that there is no sin you have ever committed that the blood of Jesus Christ cannot cleanse.

The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.

The very practice of reading [the Bible] will have a purifying effect upon your mind and heart. Let nothing take the place of this daily exercise.

Confidentiality is the essence of being trusted.

In some ways, Christians are homeless. Our true home is waiting for us, prepared by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Someday your life will be over, no matter how much attention you give to your health. Will you look back with regret, because you nourished your body but starved your soul?

All around you are people whose lives are filled with trouble and sorrow, and they need your compassion and encouragement.

The way we live often speaks far louder than our words.

Have your own convictions. Believe in the laws of your conscience because if you believe in everything, you become nothing.

The modern State, whether in a totalitarian or a democratic country, has far too much power, and we are probably right to fear it.

There are people who have too much space between their ears, and given the time, do nothing but free fall forever inside their head. It's a spooky thing to be left alone inside an angry inner-verse.

Those things don't happen today. I feel sorry for the kids in the industry today. They have on sunglasses, eat caviar in jet planes, but they'll never know the true feeling that we did.

If you have a counterculture band, you put a name on it, you call them beatniks, and you can sell something - books or bebop. Or you label them as hippies and you can sell tie-dyed T-shirts.

I see myself as the oldest griot tradition of speaking to truth out here. There's a dark side that people don't even know is there.

You have to love the doing of what you're doing and not wait for the phone to ring.

When I'm pushing myself, testing myself, that's when I'm happiest. That's when the rewards are greatest.

All consciousness is consciousness of something: in thinking I am aware that my thought is 'pointing towards' some object.

Reason obeys itself; and ignorance submits to whatever is dictated to it.
