Rage is mental imbecility.

Hatred is self-punishment.

Never let your zeal outrun your charity. The former is but human, the latter is divine.

That kind of discipline whose pungent severity is in the manifestations of paternal love, compassion, and tenderness is the most sure of its object.

How quickly a truly benevolent act is repaid by the consciousness of having done it!

Be more careful of your conscience than of your estate. The latter can be bought and sold; the former never.

Faith, in order to be genuine and of any real value, must be the offspring of that divine love which Jesus manifested when He prayed for His enemies on the cross.
