More From William Ames
- "From faith, hope, and love, the virtues of religion referring to God, there arises a double act which bears on the spiritual communion exercised between God and us; the hearing of the word and prayer."
- "The first act of religion, therefore, concerns those things which are communicated to us from God. The other concerns those things which we yield to God."
- "Therefore, the church is not absolutely necessary as an object of faith, not even for us today, for then Abraham and the other prophets would not have given assent to those things which were revealed to them from God without any intervening help of the church."

- "One of the things I’ve always enjoyed is moving around and staying fit. Physicality is such a big part of being an actor, but it’s also about stillness and silence."― Joel Edgerton
- "Our growing softness, our increasing lack of physical fitness, is a menace to our security."― John F. Kennedy
