Thomas Adam

"We cannot keep thieves from looking in at our windows, but we need not give them entertainment with open doors."

"The covetous man is like a camel with a great hunch on his back; heavens gate must be made higher and broader, or he will hardly get in."

"If I were to live to the worlds end, and do all the good that man can do, I must still cry, " Mercy!" Why then should I be unwilling or afraid to die this moment, with a sense of Gods pardoning love, when I can have no other claim to salvation if I were to live forever?"
