Someone has said that there are four things necessary in studying the Bible: Admit, submit, commit and transmit.

Dwight L. Moody

There are four things that we ought to do with the Word of God - admit it as the Word of God, commit it to our hearts and minds, submit to it, and transmit it to the world.

William Wilberforce

My entire theology can be condensed into four words, 'JESUS DIED FOR ME'.

Charles Spurgeon

You want me to admit I'm a four-foot, six-inch freckle-faced person of Jewish extraction? I admit it. All but the extraction. But being short never bothered me for three seconds. The rest of the time I wanted to commit suicide.

Mel Brooks

Transmit the established facts; do not transmit words of exaggeration. If you do that, you will probably come out all right.

Zhuangzi

It is with words as with sunbeams - the more they are condensed, the deeper they burn.

Robert Southey

If you be pungent, be brief; for it is with words as with sunbeams - the more they are condensed the deeper they burn.

John Dryden

If you would be pungent, be brief; for it is with words as with sunbeams - the more they are condensed, the deeper they burn.

Robert Southey

Four. That's what I want you to remember. If you don't get your idea across in the first four minutes, you won't do it. Four sentences to a paragraph. Four letters to a word. The most important words in the English language all have four letters. Home. Love. Food. Land. Peace. . .I know peace has five letters, but any damn fool knows it should have four.

Lyndon B. Johnson

The most devastating thing though that biology did to Christianity was the discovery of biological evolution. Now that we know that Adam and Eve never were real people the central myth of Christianity is destroyed. If there never was an Adam and Eve there never was an original sin. If there never was an original sin there is no need of salvation. If there is no need of salvation there is no need of a Savior. And I submit that puts Jesus, historical or otherwise, into the ranks of the unemployed. I think that evolution is absolutely the death knell of Christianity.

Frank Zindler

If a thing can be said in ten words, I may be relied upon to take a hundred to say it. I ought to apologize for that. I ought to prune, pare and extirpate excess growth, but I will not. I like words—strike that, I love words—and while I am fond of the condensed and economical use of them in poetry, in song lyrics, in Twitter, in good journalism and smart advertising, I love the luxuriant profusion and mad scatter of them too.

Stephen Fry

Today's comics use four-letter words as a shortcut to thinking. They're shooting for that big laugh and it becomes a panic thing, using four-letter words to shock people.

Red Skelton

As a teacher you just look at someone and you transmit to them what they need to know. Not simply a thought form, but you transmit an awareness level.

Frederick Lenz

I do not need any writing, since I transmit teaching beyond words and ideas.

Bodhidharma

We're made up of energy, so who's to say you can't transmit through electrical means? If you could transmit yourself wirelessly, then it's Armageddon pretty much.

Ian Somerhalder

We are not a land of Islam, and if French citizens can be Muslims, it's on the condition to submit to habits and ways of life that the Greek, Roman influence and 16 centuries of Christianity have shaped.
