The martyrs were bound, imprisoned, scourged, racked, burnt, rent, butchered—and they multiplied.
Augustine of Hippo
Tertullian
Some ministers would make good martyrs: they are so dry they would burn well.
—Charles H. Spurgeon
Charles Spurgeon
Martyrs are men who know what they believe.
The Gospel of God, 21
David Martyn Lloyd-Jones
A martyr is a person who holds the truth and dies for it. If he holds the truth and does not die for it, he is a hypocrite; if he dies for something other than the truth, he is a fool. A martyr is a person who dies for truth, the truth of God.
