“What a brutish master sin is, taking the joy from one's life, stealing...” — Jim Elliot Quote

“What a brutish master sin is, taking the joy from one's life, stealing money and health, giving promise of tomorrow's pleasures, and finally leading one onto the rotten planking that overlies the mouth of the pit.”

“Feast of Stephen, Deacon, First Martyr, the man who will not act until he knows all will never act at all.”

“No one warns young people to follow Adam's example. He waited till God saw his need. Then God made Adam sleep, prepared for his mate, and brought her to him. We need more of this 'being asleep' in the will of God.”

“Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.”

“People get caught up in the idea that health is just what you look like and what you eat, but your health is physical, emotional and mental. Who's to say eating that bowl of ice cream after training isn't going to help me psychologically and emotionally?”

“He whom the gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.”
