— Niccolo Machiavelli"Nevertheless, he must be cautious in believing and acting, and must not inspire fear of his own accord, and must proceed in a temperate manner with prudence and humanity, so that too much confidence does not render him incautious, and too much diffidence does not render him intolerant. From this arises the question whether it is better to be loved more than feared, or feared more than loved."

I trust there are none here present, who profess to be followers of Christ who do not also practice prayer in their families.

— Charles Spurgeon
