Quotes by Charles Spurgeon


No man ever made himself to live. No preacher, however earnest, can make one hearer to live. No parent, however prayerful, no teacher, however tearful, can make a child live unto God. “You hath HE quickened,” is true of all who are quickened.

Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength.

If any of you should ask me for an epitome of the Christian religion, I should say that it is in one word - prayer. Live and die without prayer, and you will pray long enough when you get to hell.

Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.  

Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom. 

 None are more unjust in their judgments of others than those who have a high opinion of themselves.
