“The Gospel shows people their wounds and bestows on them love. It shows them their bondage and supplies the hammer to knock away their chains.

It shows them their sins and points them to the Savior.”
Billy Graham

Napoleon Hill

“Not in order to justify, but simply in order to explain my lack of consistency, I say: Look at my present life and then at my former life, and you will see that I do attempt to carry them out. It is true that I have not fulfilled one thousandth part of them [Christian precepts], and I am ashamed of this, but I have failed to fulfill them not because I did not wish to, but because I was unable to. Teach me how to escape from the net of temptations that surrounds me, help me and I will fulfill them; even without help I wish and hope to fulfill them.
Leo Tolstoy

C.S. Lewis
