First I shake the whole Apple ...

First I shake the whole Apple tree, that the ripest might fall. Then I climb the tree and shake each limb, and then each branch and then each twig, and then I look under each leaf.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Dearest Jesus, holy child, mak...

Dearest Jesus, holy child, make thee a bed, soft, undefiled, within my heart, that it may be a quiet chamber kept for thee.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Good news from heaven the ange...

Good news from heaven the angels bring,
Glad tidings to the earth they sing:
To us this day a child is given,
To crown us with the joy of heaven.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Each day of the holidays comes...

Each day of the holidays comes bringing its own gifts.
Open your heart,
Untie the ribbons,
and enjoy the contents!
Were earth a thousand times as fair
Beset with gold and jewels rare
She yet were far too poor to be
A narrow cradle,
Lord, for Thee.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

An earthly kingdom cannot exis...

An earthly kingdom cannot exist without inequality of persons. Some must be free, some serfs, some rulers, some subjects.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The whole being of any Christi...

The whole being of any Christian is faith and love. Faith brings the person to God, love brings the person to people.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Faith is permitting ourselves ...

Faith is permitting ourselves to be seized by the things that we do not see.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Reason is the enemy of faith....

Reason is the enemy of faith.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Faith, like light, should alwa...

Faith, like light, should always be simple and unbending; while love, like warmth, should beam forth on every side, and bend to every necessity of our brethren.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Everything that is done in the...

Everything that is done in the world is done by hope. No merchant or tradesman would set himself to work if he did not hope to reap benefit thereby.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I am much afraid that the scho...

I am much afraid that the schools will prove the very gates of hell, unless they diligently labour in explaining the Holy Scriptures, and engraving them in the hearts of youth. I advise no one to place his child where the scriptures do not reign paramount. Every institution in which means are not unceasingly occupied with the Word of God must be corrupt.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I have no pleasure in any man ...

I have no pleasure in any man who despises music. It is no invention of ours: it is a gift of God. I place it next to theology. Satan hates music: he knows how it drives the evil spirit out of us.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Whatever you love most, that i...

Whatever you love most, that is your god.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

A person whodoes not regard mu...

A person whodoes not regard music as a marvelous creation of God, must be a clodhopper indeed and does not deserve to be called a human being; he should be permitted to hear nothing but the braying of asses and the grunting of hogs.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Christ sayeth not, Abstain fro...

Christ sayeth not, Abstain from the flesh, from marrying, from housekeeping, etc., as the Papists teach, for that were even to invite the devil and all his fellows to a feast.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Where the battle rages, there ...

Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved; and to be steady on all the battlefield besides, is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Out of the mountain of despair...

Out of the mountain of despair, a stone of hope.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

As for the demented, I hold it...

As for the demented, I hold it certain that all beings deprived of reason are thus afflicted only by the Devil.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Many demons are in woods, in w...

Many demons are in woods, in waters, in wildernesses, and in dark poolly places ready to hurt and prejudice people; some are also in the thick black clouds, which cause hail, lightning and thunder, and poison the air, the pastures and grounds.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Heretics are not to be dispute...

Heretics are not to be disputed with, but to be condemned unheard, and whilst they perish by fire, the faithful ought to pursue the evil to its source, and bathe their heads in the blood of the Catholic bishops, and of the Pope, who is the devil in disguise.
