Amy Carmichael
“ To me there is no more tragic sight than the average missionary. …We have given so much, yet not the one thing that counts; we aspire so high, and fall so low; we suffer so much, but so seldom with Christ; we have done so much and so little will remain; we have known Christ in part, and have so effectively barricaded our hearts against His mighty love, which surely He must yearn to give His disciples above all people. ”
― Amy Carmichael, God's Missionary

“ When political analysis is done with missionary zeal and copiously flows the adrenaline, the lynch mobs are never far behind. The critic is more guilty for the consequences than the subject of his criticism or the mob. ”
― R. N. Prasher
