On the Lord of the heavens: "This being governs all things, not as the soul of the world, but as Lord of all . . ."
On atheism: "Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance."
On the solar system: "The motions of the planets require a Divine Arm to impress them."
On God, his Savior: "The true God is a living, intelligent and powerful being."
On the trials of life: "Trials are medicines which our gracious and wise physician gives because we need them; and he proportions the frequency and weight of them to what the case requires. Let us trust His skill and thank Him for His prescription."
On God's presence: "His (God's) duration reaches from eternity to eternity; His presence from infinity to infinity."
