• We give ourselves to prayer. We preach a Gospel that saves to the uttermost, and witness to its power. We do not argue about worldliness; we witness. We do not discuss philosophy; we preach the Gospel. We do not speculate about the destiny of sinners; we pluck them as brands from the burning. We ask no man's patronage. We beg no man's money. We fear no man's frownLet no man join us who is afraid, and we want none but those who are saved, sanctified and aflame with the fire of the Holy Ghost.

  Samuel Chadwick

• The readiest way which God takes to draw a man to himself is, to afflict him in that he loves most, and with good reason; and to cause this affliction to arise from some good action done with a single eye; because nothing can more clearly show him the emptiness of what is most lovely and desirable in the world.

• The rishis of old attained the Knowledge of Brahman. One cannot have this so long as there is the slightest trace of worldliness. How hard the rishis laboured ! Early in the morning they would go away from the hermitage, and would spend the whole day in solitude, meditating on Brahman. At night they would return to the hermitage and eat a little fruit or roots. They kept their mind aloof from the objects of sight, hearing, touch, and other things of a worldly nature. Only thus did they realize Brahman as their own inner conciousness.

  Ramakrishna

• En el campo se ha reunido la idea de un modo de vida natural: de paz, inocencia y virtud sencilla. La ciudad se ha convertido en un centro de aprendizaje, comunicación y luz. También se han desarrollado poderosas asociaciones hostiles: sobre la ciudad como lugar de ruido, mundanalidad y ambición; sobre el campo como lugar de atraso, ignorancia, limitación. El contraste entre campo y ciudad, como formas fundamentales de vida, se remonta a la época clásica.

• I know that charity covereth a multitude of sins; but it does not call evil good, because a good man has done it; it does not excuse inconsistencies, because the inconsistent brother has a high name and a fervent spirit; crookedness and worldliness are still crookedness and worldliness, though exhibited in one who seems to have reached no common height of attainment.

  Charles Spurgeon

• El superhombre es el sentido de la tierra. Que vuestra voluntad diga: ¡el superhombre ha de ser el sentido de la tierra! Os lo ruego, hermanos míos, sed fieles a la tierra y no creáis a los que os hablan de esperanzas de otro mundo. Son envenenadores, lo sepan o no.
