More quotes by William Booth
I must go, not only to those who need me, but to those who need me most.
William Booth
Can we go too fast in saving souls? If anyone still wants a reply, let him ask the lost souls in Hell.
William Booth
While there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I'll fight - I'll fight to the very end!
William Booth
It is impossible to comfort men's hearts with the love of God when their feet are perishing with cold.
William Booth
Will you go to His feet and place yourself entirely at His disposal?
William Booth
Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help.
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
... you cannot make a man clean [simply] by washing his shirt.
William Booth
Don't instill, or allow anybody else to instill into the hearts of your girls the idea that marriage is the chief end of life. If you do, don't be surprised if they get engaged to the first empty, useless fool they come across.
William Booth
I am not waiting for a move of God, I am a move of God!
William Booth
The greatness of a man's power is the measure of his surrender.
William Booth

William Booth
If Moses had operated through committees the Israelites never would have got across the Red Sea.
William Booth
Some of my best men are women!
William Booth
There are men so incorrigibly lazy that no inducement that you can offer will tempt them to work so eaten up by vice that virtue is abhorrent to them, and so inveterably dishonest that theft is to them a master passion.
William Booth
While women weep, as they do now, I'll fight.
William Booth
Why should the devil have all the best tunes?
William Booth
It is against stupidity in every shape and form that we have to wage our eternal battle. But how can we wonder at the want of sense on the part of those who have had no advantages, when we see such plentiful absence of that commodity on the part of those who have had all the advantages?
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
