Oliver Cromwell

Sir, what can be said of these things? Is it the arm of the flesh that hath done these things? Is it the wisdom and counsel, or strength of man? It is the Lord only. God will curse that man and his house that dares to think otherwise. Sir, you see the work is done by a Divine leading. God gets into the hearts of men, and persuades them to come under you.

I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.

A few honest men are better than numbers.

Put your trust in God but be sure to keep your powder dry.

Do not trust the cheering, for those persons would shout as much if you or I were going to be hanged.

Keep your faith in God, but keep your powder dry.

Nature can do more than physicians.

He who stops being better stops being good.

Not only strike while the iron is hot, but make it hot by striking.

Subtlety may deceive you integrity never will.

Trust in God and keep your powder dry.

I beseech you in the bowels of Christ think it possible you may be mistaken.

God made them as stubble to our swords.
