The true despisers of the world are the people who accept what God sends them, gratefully use all things when they have them, and gladly do without them if God takes them away

More quotes by Martin Luther
I have so much to do today, I'll need to spend another hour on my knees.
Martin Luther
Faith is the master, and reason the maid-servant.
Martin Luther
If we esteem them too highly, good works can become the greatest idolatry.
Martin Luther
The Mass is the greatest blasphemy of God, and the highest idolatry upon earth, an abomination the like of which has never been in Christendom since the time of the Apostles.
Martin Luther
Teaching is of more importance than urging.
Martin Luther
Indeed, to spur your Baal to action, I will taunt and challenge you ... to create as much as a single frog in the name and by the power of free choice, though the heathen and ungodly magicians in Egypt were able to create many.... I will not set you the heavy task of creating lice, which they could not produce either
Martin Luther
Ultimately, however, conflict lies not in objective reality, but in people's heads. Truth is simple one argument - perhaps a good one, perhaps not - for dealing with the difference. The difference itself exists because it exists in their thinking.
Martin Luther
I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.
Martin Luther
Great people and champions are special gifts of God, whom He gives and preserves they do their work, and achieve great actions, not with vain imaginations, or cold and sleepy cogitations, but by motion of God.
Martin Luther
Whatever you love most, that is your god.
Martin Luther
If it were art to overcome heresy with fire, the executioners would be the most learned doctors on earth.
Martin Luther
God is entirely and personally present in the wilderness, in the garden, in the field.
Martin Luther
Lord, grant that anger or other bitterness does not reign over us, but that your grace, genuine kindness, loyalty, and every kind of friendliness, generosity, and gentleness may reign in us. Amen
Martin Luther
If we wish to wash our hands of the Jews blasphemy and not share in their guilt, we have to part company with them. They must be driven from our country.
Martin Luther
A woman has no control over herself.
Martin Luther
No man should be alone when he opposes Satan. The Church and the ministry of the Word were instituted for this purpose, that hands may be joined together and one may help another.
Martin Luther
You should not believe your conscience and your feelings more than the word which the Lord who receives sinners preaches to you.
Martin Luther
Music is one of the fairest and most glorious gifts of God, to which Satan is a bitter enemy for it removes from the heart the weight of sorrow, and the fascination of evil thoughts.
Martin Luther
Music must be supported by the king and the princes, for the maintenance of the arts is their duty no less than the maintenance of the laws.
Martin Luther
The church converteth the whole world by blood and prayer.
Martin Luther
