Small habits well pursued betimes May reach the dignity of crimes.

Everything which relates to God is infinite. We must therefore, while we keep our hearts humble, keep our aims high. Our highest services are indeed but finite, imperfect. But as God is unlimited in goodness, He should have our unlimited love.

Perish discretion, when it interferes With duty!

The keen spirit seizes the prompt occasion.

The artful injury, whose venomed dart scarce wounds the hearing, while it stabs the heart.

The secret heart is fair devotion's temple; there the saint, even on that living altar, lights the flame of purest sacrifice, which burns unseen, not unaccepted.

The ingenuity of self-deception is inexhaustible.
