all are not saints that go to the church all things are possible with God the best sermon is a good life the cowl does not make the monk danger past, God is forgotten do your best and leave the rest with God each one holds his religion for the best earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal every man for himself, and God for us all faith will move mountains God heals and the doctor takes the fee God helps those who help themselves God is always on the side of the big battalions God is no respecter of persons God made the country and man made the town God restores health, and the physician gets thanks God sends meat and the devil sends cooks God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb the gods send nuts to those who have no teeth God's clock strikes on time God's in his heaven; all's right with the world God's mill grinds slow but sure the greater the sinner, the greater the saint he that serves God for money will serve the devil for better wages it matters not what religion an ill man is of like priest, like people the Lord chastises His own the lord knows when to clip our wings the Lord who gave can take away man proposes, God disposes a man without a religion is a horse without a bridle many have quarreled about religion that never practiced it the nearer the church, the farther from God preacher, be advised by your own sermons preachers can talk but never teach unless they practice what they preach religion should be a rule of life, not a casual incident of it some people depend too little on the Lord, and some people depend too much on Him those, who know all about heaven seldom get there where God builds a church, the Devil will build a chapel whom Gods would destroy, they first make mad you cannot serve God and Mammon
