We invite our opponents to tell us what good things attended the preaching of the Gospel by the apostles. Did not the destruction of Jerusalem follow on the heels of the Gospel? And how about the overthrow of the Roman Empire? Did not the whole world seethe with unrest as the Gospel was preached in the whole world? We do not say that the Gospel instigated these upheavals. The iniquity of man did it. Our opponents blame our doctrine for the present turmoil. But ours is a doctrine of grace and peace.英文原著 · 《Commentary on the Epistle to the Galatians》

And I am not sure that the doctor's science will accomplish that.英文原著 · 《Dear Enemy》
Such an upheaval! I've discharged the cook and the housekeeper, and in delicate language conveyed the impression to our grammar teacher that she needn't come back next year. But, oh, if I could only discharge the Honorable Cy!英文原著 · 《Dear Enemy》
With that advice, and a few bottles of cod-liver oil we are left to our own devices. I feel very free and adventurous. Perhaps you had better run up here again, as there's no telling what joyous upheaval I may accomplish when out from under Sandy's dampening influence.英文原著 · 《Dear Enemy》
