Adoniram Judson Zitate

Meine Ansichten über das Missionsobjekt unterscheiden sich tatsächlich von den Ansichten, als ich vor sechs Jahren von Buchanans "Star in the East" zum ersten Mal in Brand gesetzt wurde. Es kommt jedoch nicht immer vor, dass eine nähere Bekanntschaft mit einem Objekt unsere Bindung und Vorliebe verringert.

I'll also tell you that five hundred thousand people will die this year of cancer. And I'll also tell you that one in every four will be afflicted with this disease, and yet, somehow, we seem to have put it in a little bit of the background.
