R. S. Storrs Quote

“If any of you ever go into the pulpit "simply upon the cold legs of custom," be very careful to take a manuscript with you. But if you go to speak to the assembly because your mind is full of the truth, and you long to impart that truth to them, for their sake and for God's sake,—then charge your mind with it, and speak with all the force you can give it, without any notes.”
