#quotes #harry-blamires #religious #christianity

Whenever you can, act as a liberator. Freedom, dignity, wealth; these three together constitute the greatest happiness of humanity. If you bequeath all three to your people, their love for you will never die. ~Cyrus the Great

Whenever the devil harasses you, seek the company of men or drink more, or joke and talk nonsense, or do some other merry thing. Sometimes we must drink more, sport, recreate ourselves, and even sin a little to spite the devil, so that we leave him no place for troubling our consciences with trifles. We are conquered if we try too conscientiously not to sin at all. So when the devil says to you: do not drink, answer him: I will drink, and right freely, just because you tell me not to. ~Martin Luther

The rock-star thing became very destructive, like, wow. I didn't know what I was doing. I just kind of became that thing. The hair, that rock-star kind of lifestyle, just living a dream.

#quotes #heidi-baker #god #compassion
