On Prayer

Thus if anything is to be done well, it requires the full attention of all one's senses and members, as the proverb says, 'The one who thinks of many things, thinks of nothing and does nothing right.' How much more does prayer call for concentration and singleness of heart if it is to be a good prayer!

Luther, "How One Should Pray, for Peter, the Master Barber", 1535
