Anger that has no limit causes terror, and unseasonable kindness does away with respect. Be not so severe as to cause disgust, nor so lenient as to make people presume.
None can be so true to your secret as yourself.
Fear not the proud and the haughty; fear rather him who fears God.
If thou art wise, incline to truth; for truth, not the semblance, remains in its place.
Every person thinks his own intellect perfect, and his own child handsome.
The true disciple should aim to live for the gospel, rather than to die for it.
