More quotes by Pasquier Quesnel

People want to be Christians too cheaply, and consequently they are not Christians at all. Salvation has to cost, it has to cost everything, at least as far as the disposition of the heart is concerned.

Zeal is very blind, or badly regulated, when it encroaches upon the rights of others.
