Forgiveness is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been lost, and was found, is saved from being lost again.

Better that I find you, God, and leave the questions unanswered, than to find the answers without finding you.

Christ is not valued at all, unless he is valued above all.

O eternal truth and true love and beloved eternity! You are my God; to you I sigh by day and by night. And when I first knew you, you raised me up so that I could see that there was something to see and that I still lacked the ability to see it. And you beat back the weakness of my sight, blazing upon me with your rays, and I trembled in love and in dread.

Better to have fewer wants than greater riches to supply increasing wants.

For it is better to suffer a little want than to have too much.
