As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide." "Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us." "As President, I have no eyes but constitutional eyes; I cannot see you." "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." "No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens." Top 5 quotes from Prayer "Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees." "I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom, and that of all about me, seemed insufficient for the day." "When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers." "Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you." "What seem our worst prayers may really be, in God's eyes, our best. Those, I mean, which are least supported by devotional feeling. For these may come from a deeper level than feeling. God sometimes seems to speak to us most intimately when He catches us, as it were, off our guard."
