Praying is like a rocking chair - it'll give you something to do, but it won't get you anywhere.

We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.

I am a religious person and rely heavily on prayers.

We can never know for certain where our prayers are likely to go, nor from whom the answers will come. Just when we think we are at our nearest to God, we could be assisting the Devil.

It is good for us to keep some account of our prayers, that we may not unsay them in our practice.

Until I feel strong enough to pray sincerely and to act accordingly, I would rather not pray at all.

It is a most delightful reflection that if I come to the throne of God in prayer, I may feel a thousand defects, but yet there is hope. I usually feel more dissatisfied with my prayers than with anything else I do.

Prayer for many is like a foreign land. When we go there, we go as tourists. Like most tourists, we feel uncomfortable and out of place. Like most tourists, we therefore move on before too long and go somewhere else.
