Billy Sunday
Personal liberty is not personal license.
Billy Sunday

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

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
Churches don't need new members half so much as they need the old bunch made over.
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
Enthusiasm is as good a thing in the Church as fire is in a cook stove.
Billy Sunday
The reason you don't like the Bible, you old sinner, is because it knows all about you.
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.
