Prejudice: Quotations from Burning Words

I verily believe that the kingdom of God advances more on spoken words than it does on essays written and read; on words, that is, in which the present feeling and thought of the teaching mind break into natural and forceful expression.— R. S. STORRS
Let the sermon thou hast heard be converted into prayer.— JOHN BUNYAN
Be short in all religious exercises. Better leave the people longing than loathing. No conversions after the first half hour.— EMMONS
When we destroy an old prejudice, we have need of a new virtue.
