Resolution for holiness, without a holy inclination, is a blade without a root; fresh and green as it looks, it will wither and come to nothing—no root, no fruit, nor lasting. The heart is the root of action, and grace is the life of the root.

Richard Alleine, Heaven Opened; or, A Brief and Plain Discovery of the Riches of God’s Covenant of Grace (1665; New York: American Tract Society, 1838), p. 229.
