God himself has condescended to teach the way; for this very end he came from heaven. He hath written it down in a book! O give me that book! At any price, give me the Book of God! I have it: here is knowledge enough for me. Let me be homo unius libri.*
*A man of one book.
John Wesley, “Preface,” Sermons on Several Occasions, Volume 1, Thomas Jackson, editor. London: J. Kershaw, 1825, p. vii
