From the time God saved me at 21 years old, I've always been fascinated by the parables of Jesus. -- Tullian Tchividjian
I think you often say more by saying less. And interestingly enough, I mean, Jesus really set the standard. I mean, he could say more with fewer words than anybody. Most of the parables were less than 250 words. And, boy, did he have some one-liners just packed with truth. -- Mark Batterson
Jesus kinda fools around and gives you parables. He doesn't oftentimes say exactly what he means. But in Matthew 25, he's very, very clear. And he delineates what it takes to get into the Kingdom of Heaven very, very clearly. And he says how you treat the least among us, the least of our brothers, that's how you treat Him. -- Juan Vargas
Jesus was a brilliant Jewish stand-up comedian, a phenomenal improviser. His parables are great one-liners. -- Camille Paglia
Maybe that's why Jesus was so fond of parables: Nothing describes the indescribable like a good yarn. -- Cathleen Falsani
In seventeen of His thirty-seven parables, Jesus dealt with property and man's responsibility for using it wisely. -- George Sweeting
Jesus did not give the parables to teach us how to live. He gave them, I believe, to correct our notions about who God is and who God loves. -- Philip Yancey
