Blessed is he who submits to the will of God; he can never be unhappy.

I am not of the opinion that all the arts shall be crushed to earth and perish through the Gospel, as some bigoted persons pretend, but would willingly see them all, and especially music, servants of Him who gave and created them.

I have so much to do today that I must set apart more time than usual to pray.

Lord, grant that anger or other bitterness does not reign over us, but that your grace, genuine kindness, loyalty, and every kind of friendliness, generosity, and gentleness may reign in us. Amen

Great thieves go Scott-free, as the Pope and his crew.

How is God's name hallowed among us? When both our doctrine and living are truly Christian.

Even like as St. Paul was converted, just so are all others converted; for we all resist God, but the Holy Ghost draws the will of mankind, when he pleases, through preaching.
