He who wishes for goods will never have devotion.

My Jesus, if you uphold me, I shall not fall.

Christian joy is a gift of God flowing from a good conscience.

In sickness we ought to ask God to give us patience, because it often happens, that when a man gets well, he not only does not do the good he proposed to do when he was sick, but he multiplies his sins and his ingratitude.

If we wish to keep peace with our neighbours, we should never remind any one of his natural defects.

To be without pity for other mens falls, is an evident sign that we shall fall ourselves shortly.

He who wishes for anything but Christ, does not know what he wishes; he who asks for anything but Christ, does not know what he is asking; he who works, and not for Christ, does not know what he is doing.
