“I am not tired of my work, neither am I tired of the world; yet when Christ calls me home, I shall go with the gladness of a boy bounding away from his school.”
–Adoniram Judson, as quoted in Francis Wayland, A Memoir of the Life and Labors of the Rev. Adoniram Judson, Vol. 2 (Boston: Phillips, Sampson, and Co., 1853), 2: 346.
