Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

I am a little world made cunningly.

This only is charity, to do all, all that we can.

Man is not only a contributory creature, but a total creature; he does not only make one, but he is all; he is not a piece of the world, but the world itself, and next to the glory of God, the reason why there is a world.

Contemplative and bookish men must of necessity be more quarrelsome than others, because they contend not about matter of fact, nor can determine their controversies by any certain witnesses, nor judges. But as long as they go towards peace, that is Truth, it is no matter which way.

Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime, nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.

That soul that can reflect upon itself, consider itself, is more than so.
