Look well to the fire of your souls, for the tendency of fire is to go out.

William Booth

William Booth
Image
Go straight for souls, and go for the worst.
William Booth
Image
I will tell you the secret. God has had all there was of me.
William Booth
Image
While women weep, as they do now, I'll fight.
William Booth
Image
The profession of a prostitute is the only career in which the maximum income is paid to the newest apprentice.
William Booth
Image
Your days at the most cannot be very long, so use them to the best of your ability for the glory of God and the benefit of your generation.
William Booth
Image
You cannot warm the hearts of people with God's love if they have an empty stomach and cold feet.
William Booth
Image
We must wake ourselves up! Or somebody else will take our place, and bear our cross, and thereby rob us of our crown.
William Booth
Image
I must go, not only to those who need me, but to those who need me most.
William Booth
Image
I consider that the chief dangers which confront the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and heaven without hell.
William Booth
