“But when he deals with the Winner that [Jesus] is the most romantic, in the sense most real. The world had always loved the Saint as being the nearest possible approach to the perfection of God. Christ, through some divine instinct in him, seems to have always loved the Winner as being the nearest possible approach to the perfection of man. His primary desire was not to reform people, any more than his primary desire was to relieve suffering. To turn an interesting thief into a tedious honest man was not his aim. He would have thought little of the Prisoner's Aid Society and other modern movements of the kind. The conversion of a Pharisee would not have seemed to him a great achievement by any means. But in a manner not yet understood of the world he regarded sin and suffering as being in themselves beautiful, holy things, and modes of perfection. It sounds a very dangerous idea. It is so. All great ideas are dangerous. That it was Christ's creed admits of no doubt. That is the true creed I don't doubt myself.”

“Wenye dhambi watafufuliwa na wataungana na Ibilisi kuipiga Yerusalemu Mpya itakayokuwa inang'inia hewani, huku Yesu na watakatifu wote wakiwa hawana silaha yoyote; lakini vilevile wakiwa hawapigwi kwa silaha yoyote. Shetani atakapoonekana kushindwa, Yesu atawasha ‘kibiriti cha kiroho’. Mafuta yote yaliyopo ardhini dunia nzima yatalipuka na kugeuza ardhi yote kuwa ziwa la moto, na hivyo wenye dhambi wote kupata aibu ya milele.”

“«Залежні, бо не визволились від власних гріхів. Знаю це по собі. Я теж у тій гріховній неволі довгі роки жила. Все лиш себе бачила, а не других, про рідний край не дбала, хотіла, щоб на моїм стало, хоч би світ перевернувся догори дном. А це гріх, це великий гріх, Мотре. Таких грішників у нас дуже багато, і тому й помремо, мабуть, у неволі, бо Господь закаменілих грішників тяжко карає».”
