“It is safest and sweetest to define as God defines, both vices and graces.”
― Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices

“Every sin strikes at the honor of God, the being of God, the glory of God, the heart of Christ, the joy of the Spirit, and the peace of a man's conscience; and therefore a soul truly penitent strikes at all, hates all, conflicts with all, and will labor to draw strength from a crucified Christ to crucify all sins.”
― Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices

“Yes, true repentance makes a man to deny his sinful self, and to walk contrary to sinful self, to take a holy revenge upon sin,”
― Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices

“though Satan has his devices to draw souls to sin, yet we must be careful that we do not lay all our temptations upon Satan, that we do not wrong the devil, and father that upon him that is to be fathered upon our own base hearts.”
― Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices
