The fewer the words, the better the prayer.

When I am angry I can pray well and preach well.

The reproduction of mankind is a great marvel and mystery. Had God consulted me in the matter, I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species by fashioning them out of clay.

Forgiveness is God's command.

Faith is permitting ourselves to be seized by the things we do not see.

Peace if possible, truth at all costs.

I feel much freer now that I am certain the pope is the Antichrist.

Be a sinner and sin strongly, but more strongly have faith and rejoice in Christ.

I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.
