William Booth
I am for the world's salvation, I will quarrel with no means that promises help.
William Booth
I must assert in the most unqualified way that it is primarily and mainly for the sake of saving the soul that I seek the salvation of the body.
William Booth
What is the use of preaching the Gospel to men whose whole attention is concentrated upon a mad, desperate struggle to keep themselves alive?
William Booth

William Booth

William Booth
Good cookery is not an extravagance but an economy, and many a tasty dish is made by our Continental friends out of materials which would be discarded indignantly by the poorest tramp in Whitechapel.
William Booth
While women weep, as they do now, I'll fight.
William Booth
Secular music, do you say, belongs to the devil? Does it? Well, if it did I would plunder him for it, for he has no right to a single note of the whole seven. Every note, and every strain, and every harmony is divine, and belongs to us.
William Booth
If Moses had operated through committees the Israelites never would have got across the Red Sea.
William Booth
Will you go to His feet and place yourself entirely at His disposal?
William Booth
You cannot warm the hearts of people with God's love if they have an empty stomach and cold feet.
William Booth
Without excuse and self-consideration of health or limb or life, true soldiers fight, live to fight, love the thickest of the fight, and die in the midst of it.
William Booth
