The first end I propose in our daily work is to do the will of God; secondly, to do it in the manner he wills it; and thirdly to do it because it is his will.

Be attentive to the voice of grace.

Faith lifts the soul, Hope supports it, Experience says it must and Love says...let it be!.

Cheerfulness prepares a glorious mind for all the noblest acts.

The gate of heaven is very low; only the humble can enter it.

I will go peaceably and firmly to the Catholic Church: for if Faith is so important to our salvation, I will seek it where true Faith first began, seek it among those who received it from God Himself.

The love of talk distracts all the powers of our soul from God, and fills them with earthly objects and impressions, like a vessel of water that cannot be settled while you are continualy stirring the earthly particles from the bottom.
