Sunday Quote

I discovered the following quote by Martin Luther while preparing for an upcoming (Wednesday) examination on the history of Christianity. The quote comes from Luther's 1520 work The Freedom of Christians:
A Christian is a perfectly free lord of all, subject to none; a Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject to all.
Martin Luther

This particular quote is from Luther's Works, edited by J. Pelikan and H. T. Lehmann, 1955-1976.
