I humbly trust I have humbled myself before God and come to him through Christ and though my heart be so hard and cold and inconstant yet I will humbly trust that his mercy will be extended, even to me.

Some people hold the truth, but in such a cold stern way that it will do no good. Other people want to love everything, and so they give up much of the truth; but we are to hold the truth in love; we are to hold the truth even if we lose all, but we are to hold it in love.
—D. L. Moody
There is one thing that I fear more than anything else, and that is the dead, cold formalism of the Church of God. So many of us are just sleeping and slumbering while souls are perishing. Some are beginning to rub our eyes and get them half-opened, but as a whole we are asleep.
—D. L. Moody

I don’t remember who exactly, but some deep heart expert said that the surest measurement of friendship is money. And his statement is fair.

And the greater the need, the more sincere the friendship, driving away this hungry witch.
—Taras Shevchenko

If people could see into my heart, I should almost feel ashamed — all there is cold, cold as ice.
—Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Two turtle doves will show thee Where my cold ashes lie And sadly murmuring tell thee How in tears I did die
—Nikolai Gogol
I suspect I have been allotting habitually too little time to religious exercises, as private devotion, religious meditation, Scripture reading, etc. Hence I am lean, and cold, and hard.
—William Wilberforce
Pride costs us more than hunger, thirst and cold.
—Thomas Jefferson
Iron rusts from disuse, stagnant water loses its purity, and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigors of the mind.

It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.
—Charles Dickens
