Blessedness is promised to the peacemaker, not to the conqueror.

Put off thy cares with thy clothes; so shall thy rest strengthen thy labour, and so shall thy labour sweeten thy rest.

Blessedness is promised to the peacemaker, not to the conqueror.

Heaven finds an ear when sinners find a tongue.

When the flesh presents thee with delights, then present thyself with dangers; where the world possesses thee with vain hopes, there possess thyself with true fear; when the devil brings thee oil, bring thou vinegar. The way to be safe is never to be secure.

Other vices make their own way; this makes way for all vices. He that is a drunkard is qualified for all vice.

Afflictions clarify the soul.
