David Livingstone
I will place no value on anything I have or may possess, except in relation to the kingdom of Christ.

David Livingstone
Shall I tell you what supported me through all those years of exile among a people whose language I could not understand and whose attitude towards me we always uncertain and often hostile? It was this: Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.

David Livingstone
I will try and remember always to approach God in secret with as much reverence in speech, posture, and behavior as in public. Help me, Thou who knowest my frame and pitiest as a father his children.
David Livingstone
