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
Medicine makes people ill, mathematics make them sad and theology makes them sinful.
Martin Luther
Rest in the Lord wait patiently for Him. In Hebrew, Be silent in God, and let Him mould thee. Keep still, and He will mould thee to the right shape.
Martin Luther
In Switzerland, on a high mountain, not far from Lucerne, there is a lake they call Pilate's Pond, which the Devil has fixed upon as one of the chief residences of his evil spirits.
Martin Luther
The human heart is like a millstone in a mill: when you put wheat under it, it turns and grinds and bruises the wheat to flour if you put no wheat, it still grinds on, but then 'tis itself it grinds and wears away.
Martin Luther
God's entire divine nature is wholly and entirely in all creatures, more deeply, more inwardly, more present than the creature is to itself.
Martin Luther
The priest is not made. He must be born a priest must inherit his office. I refer to the new birth-the birth of water and the Spirit. Thus all Christians must became priests, children of God and co-heirs with Christ the Most High Priest.
Martin Luther
The fool will upset the whole science of astronomy.
Martin Luther
Faith is permitting ourselves to be seized by the things that we do not see.
Martin Luther
The reproduction of mankind is a great marvel and mystery. Had God consulted me in the matter, I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species by fashioning them out of clay.
Martin Luther
At night always carry in your heart something from Holy Scriptures to bed with you, meditate upon it like a ruminant animal, and go softly to sleep but this must not be too much, rather a little that may be well pondered and understood, that you may find a remnant of it in your mind when you rise in the morning.
Martin Luther
It is the most ungodly and dangerous business to abandon the certain and revealed will of God in order to search in to the hidden mysteries of God.
Martin Luther
So great are the effectiveness and power of the Word of God that the more it is persecuted the more it flourishes and grows.
Martin Luther
Christians are to be taught that the pope would and should wish to give of his own money, even though he had to sell the basilica of St. Peter, to many of those from whom certain hawkers of indulgences cajole money.
Martin Luther
The church converteth the whole world by blood and prayer.
Martin Luther
As long as there is poverty in this world, no man can be totally rich even if he has a billion dollars.
Martin Luther
It is an unsufferable blasphemy to reject the public ministry or to say that people can become holy without sermons and Church. This involves a destruction of the Church and rebellion against ecclesiastical order such upheavals must be warded off and punished like all other revolts.
Martin Luther
Always preach in such a way that if the people listening do not come to hate their sin, they will instead hate you
Martin Luther
Some will object that the Law is divine and holy. Let it be divine and holy. The Law has no right to tell me that I must be justified by it.
Martin Luther
God does not need your good works, but your neighbor does.
Martin Luther
Those with prodigious skill in music are better suited for all things.
Martin Luther
