Andrew Chan quotes:

I never really was good at being a family general man, really. I hardly ever spent any time with my mum and dad whatever, really, or brothers or sisters. We just really didn't get along. I was pretty much like the black sheep of the family, to be honest.

I believe if you want to build up to something, you have to start somewhere - you have to start today and maybe tomorrow won't exist.

I've learnt to realise my brother is my own best friend. He'd always stick his nose in even though I turned around and said "It's none of your business", I know he only wanted to look out for me.

I don't think I was really going anywhere in life. I don't think, I was achieving too much, even though I had a stable job and all.

When I got back to my cell, I said, 'God, I asked you to set me free, not kill me.' God spoke to me and said, 'Andrew, I have set you free from the inside out, I have given you life!' From that moment on I haven't stopped worshipping Him. I had never sung before, never led worship, until Jesus set me free.

I'm thankful that every day I actually get to wake up.
