“Scriptural lessons not put into practice are poison; a meal is poison to him who suffers from indigestion; a social gathering is poison to a poverty stricken person; and a young wife is poison to an aged man.”
Chanakya
“Nobody ever outgrows scripture; the Book widens and deepens with our years”
Charles H. Spurgeon
“I do not quote from the scriptures;I simply see what I see.”
Kabir
“In the divine Scriptures, there are shallows and there are deeps; shallows where the lamb may wade, and deeps where the elephant may swim”
John Owen
“The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.”
William Shakespeare
“The devil can site scripture for his own purpose! An evil soul producing holy witness is like a villain with a smiling cheek. [Merchant Of Venice]”
“But then I sigh; and, with a piece of Scripture, Tell them that God bids us do good for evil: And thus I clothe my naked villany With odd old ends stol'n forth of holy writ; And seem a saint when most I play the devil”
