Backing Quotations

C. S. Lewis

Richard Branson

John Lee Hooker

Terry Brooks

Sandra Bernhard
Who knows the minds of men and how they reason and what their methodology is? But I am not going to extrapolate from the General Conference backing out on my book and make it a personal issue.
Walter Martin
