18 most famous Jan Hus quotes and sayings (philosopher). These are the first 10 quotes we have.
“For God is my witness that I neither preached, affirmed, nor defended them, though they say that I did.”
“Behold how Christ is the foundation of the church and the apostles are the foundations!

But the prophets and apostles are the foundations because their authority bears up our weakness.”
“He that fears death loses the joys of life.”
“I entreat masters to live a good life and faithfully to instruct their scholars, especially that they may love God and learn to give themselves to knowledge, in order to promote His honour, the welfare of the state, and their own salvation, but not for the sake of avarice or the praise of man.”
“It is better to die well than to live badly.”
“Open is the way of Satan; many walk therein.”
“I hope, by God's grace, that I am truly a Christian, not deviating from the faith, and that I would rather suffer the penalty of a terrible death than wish to affirm anything outside of the faith or transgress the commandments of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
“O God and Lord, now the council condemns even Your own act and Your own law as heresy, since You Yourself did lay Your cause before Your Father as the just judge, as an example for us, whenever we are sorely oppressed.”
“As for antichrist occupying the papal chair, it is evident that a pope living contrary to Christ, like any other perverted person, is called, by common consent, antichrist.”
“A precept or command is a general teaching of God, obligating every man under pain of mortal sin - namely, in cases in which he has fallen away from the command. Hence, the saints who for a period of their life lived hypocritically sinned mortally for that period. So also the damned, by persistent false living, sin persistently in Hell.”
