1 quotation from Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), with the subject each one is filed under.

Man not only owes his services but himself to God. Christian obligation cannot be made to accord with a law of expediency. The Christian's maxims are, "Do right because you are bound to do right." "Do right though the heavens fall." There is a world of difference between "You had better" and "You are bound to." -— filed under Duty
