More quotes by Billy Sunday
If you are strangers to prayer you are strangers to power.
Billy Sunday
I want to preach the gospel so plainly that men can come from the factories and not have to bring along a dictionary.
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
When is a revival needed? When carelessness and unconcern keep the people asleep.
Billy Sunday

Billy Sunday
The Bible says forgive your debtors the world says sue them for their dough.
Billy Sunday
There is nothing in the world of art like the songs mother used to sing.

When the English language gets in my way, I walk over it.
Billy Sunday
They tell me a revival is only temporary so is a bath, but it does you good.
Billy Sunday
A revival does two things. First, it returns the Church from her backsliding and second, it causes the conversion of men and women and it always includes the conviction of sin on the part of the Church. What a spell the devil seems to cast over the Church today!
Billy Sunday
Conversion is a complete surrender to Jesus. It's a willingness to do what he wants you to do.
Billy Sunday
Being a king, emperor, or president is mighty small potatoes compared to being a mother.
Billy Sunday
I believe the Bible is the word of God from cover to cover.
Billy Sunday
The backslider likes the preaching that wouldn't hit the side of a house, while the real disciple is delighted when the truth brings him to his knees.
Billy Sunday
We have a God who delights in impossibilities.
Billy Sunday
Personal liberty is not personal license.
Billy Sunday
The saloon is a liar. It promises good cheer and sends sorrow. It promises prosperity and sends adversity. It promises happiness and sends misery.... It is God's worst enemy and the devil's best friend.
Billy Sunday
America didn't need repeal, she needed repentance!
Billy Sunday
It is not necessary to be in a big place to do big things.
Billy Sunday
Try praising your wife, even if it does frighten her at first.
Billy Sunday
