It makes me miserable and sick, like biting something rotten would do. Temperament, I suppose."

And anything which describes a truth well is a reflection of that truth! Turn your eyes away from the Moon, then the lake will remind the Moon to you, the shadows of the wolves howling against the Moon will remind the truth to you, even in the eyes of a frog, you shall see the Moon! Thus, if you turn your face away from the truth, it will never work! Because the reminders of truth are everywhere and they are as strong as the truth itself!"

"Challenging the truth is like playing tennis against the wall! The defeat is inevitable!"

"Max Lucado says that 'A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.' That is true and a man who wants to find out the truth must also do the same thing!"

"To free a man from error is not to deprive him of anything but to give him something: for the knowledge that a thing is false is a piece of truth.

"Satan is the sower of compromise-leaving a bit of God's truth into the dirty rags of sin. Satan is the commander in deceit, Satan is the ringleader in rebellion against the faithful.Satan is the sly serpent of temptation.Satan is the false hope of security.Satan is the great pretender.Satan is the great spoiler of everything good.And Satan wants to destroy you."
