Let us realize that we are sinners and have much to explate, while others less culpable than we are suffer more than we do.

If only I could be hidden in a corner, so as not to be tempted to worry about things that are not really my business.

Jesus, I live for Thee, I labor for Thee, I desire only Thee. Thou in me and I in Thee; Thou with me and I with Thee; Thou all mine and I all Thine.
