"I often say my prayers,
But do I ever pray?
And do the wishes of my heart
Go with the words I say?
I may as well kneel down
And worship gods of stone,
As offer to the living God
A prayer of words alone"

Here is a forester's response to a man who had just told how he forgot to have devotion with God before a hike and got lost:

"If you don't invite Him, He might not come."

"Prayer is the means by which we obtain all the graces which rain down upon us from the Divine Fountain of Goodness and Love"
-Laurence Scupoli

Check this quote, that one got me there...

"The effective prayer of faith comes from a life given up to the will and love of God. Not as a result of what i try to be when praying, but because of what i am when i'm not praying, is my prayer answered by God"
-Andrew Murray

"What the Church needs to-day is not more machinery or better, not new organizations or more and novel methods, but men whom the Holy Ghost can use -- men of prayer, men mighty in prayer. The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods, but through men. He does not come on machinery, but on men. He does not anoint plans, but men -- men of prayer."
