There are men who sleep on the banks of the Ganga in the midsummer sun of India, and in winter float in the waters of the Ganga for a whole day; they do not care.

The bare knowledge of God's will is inefficacious, it does not better the heart. Knowledge alone is like a winter sun, which hath no heat or influence; it does not warm the affections, or purify the conscience. Judas was a great luminary, he knew God's will, but he was a traitor. — Thomas Watson
