"I haven't read that any man ever gave to Christ so much as one penny, but the women followed Him and helped support Him out of their own means.  It was a woman who washed His feet with tears, and a woman who anointed His body for burial.  They were woman who wept when He was going to the Cross, and women who followed Him from the cross and who sat by His Sepulcher when He was buried.  They were women who were with Him first at His Resurrection Morning, and women who first brought to His disciples word that He had risen from the dead.  Women, therefore, are highly favored, and by these things they show that they are sharers with us in the Grace of Life."  (340)

"I knew He could hear and provide invisible help, and that was sufficient for me."  (384)

"I must continue, for to go back means nothing but death.  To go forward is the fear of death, but beyond it is life everlasting.  I'll keep going forward." (58)

"...I saw such things there that the memory of them will stick with me as long as I live.  This is especially true of three things:  First--how Christ, in spite of Satan, maintains His work of grace in the heart; Second--how the man had sinned himself quite out of the hope of obtaining God's mercy; and Third--the dream of him who thought in his sleep the day of judgment had come." (65)

"I see that talking and doing are two different things, and after this I'll pay closer attention to this distinction." (104)

"I walk by the rule of my Master...You walk by the rude working of your imaginations.  The Lord of the Way already considers you to be thieves, so I doubt you'll be found worthy at the end of the Way.  You came in by yourselves without His direction, and you'll go out by yourselves without His mercy." (52)

"I'd rather go up the ladder to life than down the hill to death."  (278)

" 'If I may have the happiness to have a dwelling there, it will be enough even though I part with all the world to win it.' "  (330)

"...if nobody will have me, I'll die unmarried or my conditions will be to me like a husband.  For I can't change my nature, and I purpose to never, as long as I live, allow myself to have one who lies crosswise to me in this."  (295)

"If that man had in his life a week to run twenty miles, he would've been unwilling to defer that journey until the last hour of that week."  (333)

"If the world, which God accounts as less significant, is considered by people to be a thing of worth, how is Heaven considered, which is commended by God?"  (262)
