"And as for all these troubles you tell me about--which I'm likely to meet with in the Way--they're so far off from being a discouragement to me that they show me I'm in the right.  The bitter must come before the sweet, and that will also make the sweet all the sweeter."  (234)

"Be faithful, even to the point of death, and my King will give you the crown of life."  (405)

"Be of good cheer!  Jesus Christ makes you whole!"  (205)

"Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished!"  (242)

"But you didn't come in at the Narrow Gate that is at the beginning of this path.  You came in there, through that crooked lane.  I fear, therefore, that whatever you may think of yourself, when the day of reckoning comes you will be charged with being a thief and a robber instead of getting admittance into the City." (164)
