More quotes by Billy Sunday

Billy Sunday

Billy Sunday

Billy Sunday
At Kansas City, Kansas, before the saloons were closed, they were getting ready to build an addition to the jail. Now the doors swing idly on the hinges and there is nobody to lock in the jails.
Billy Sunday
The world is wrong side up. It needs to be turned upside down in order to be right side up.
Billy Sunday
When may a revival be expected? When the wickedness of the wicked grieves and distresses the Christian.

Billy Sunday
Some ministers say, 'If you don't repent you'll die and go to a place the name of which I can't pronounce.' I can! You'll go to hell!
Billy Sunday
The man who votes for the saloon is pulling on the same rope with the devil, whether he knows it or not.
Billy Sunday
Give your face to God, and He will put his shine on it.
Billy Sunday
Hypocrites in the Church? Yes, and in the lodge and at the home. Don't hunt through the Church for a hypocrite. Go home and look in the mirror. Hypocrites? Yes. See that you make the number one less.
Billy Sunday
Get somebody else for Jesus Christ and you will get a new vision of life, a new vision of what it means.
Billy Sunday
Some homes need a hickory switch a good deal more than they do a piano.
Billy Sunday
Home is the place we love best and grumble the most.
