"So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills." (Romans 9:18 ESV)
"I believe the doctrine of election, because I am quite sure that if God had not chosen me I should never have chosen him; and I am sure he chose me before I was born, or else he never would have chosen me afterwards; and he must have elected me for reasons unknown to me, for I never could find any reason in myself why he should have looked upon me with special love."
(Charles Spurgeon, Lectures to My Students)
