A good example is the best sermon.

Example is the school of mankind, and they will learn at no other.

Advice may be wrong, but examples prove themselves.

... The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do ...

There is a transcendent power in example.

Not the cry, but the flight of the wild duck, leads the flock to fly and follow.

Example moves the world more than doctrine.

So act that your principle of action might safely be made a law for the whole world.

Example is always more efficacious than precept.

You can preach a better sermon with your life than with your lips.

I have learned silence from the talkative; tolerance from the intolerant; and kindness from the unkind.

Our task as laymen is to live our personal communion with Christ with such intensity as to make it contagious.

Preaching is of much avail, but practice is far more effective. A godly life is the strongest argument that you can offer to the skeptic.

Others follow in your footsteps quicker than they follow your advice.

Many people will not read a Bible but will read a Christian.

We need someone, I say, on whom our character may mould itself: you'll never make the crooked straight without a ruler.

Example is the best precept.

One example is worth a thousand arguments.

You become like those you spend time with.

Somebody is looking at God through you.
