Our true and genuine wisdom can be summed up as the knowledge of God and the knowledge of ourselves.

Whenever our sins press hard against us, whenever Satan would drive us to despair, we must hold up this shield, that God does not want us to be overwhelmed in everlasting destruction, for He has ordained His Son to be the salvation of the world.

We must not think that [God] takes no notice of us, when He does not answer our wishes: for He has a right to distinguish what we actually need.

Our true and genuine wisdom can be summed up as the knowledge of God and the knowledge of ourselves.

Whether each of the faithful has a particular angel assigned him for his defence, I cannot venture certainly to affirm... not one angel only has the care of every one of us, but that they all with one consent watch for our salvation.

The glory of God shines, indeed, in all creatures on high and below, but never more brightly than in the cross.
