It is better that the truth be known than that scandal be covered up.
Love, and do what you will. If you are silent, be silent for love; or if you cry out, cry out for love. If you chastise, chastise for love; if you spare, spare for love.
Lord, thou madest us for thyself, and we can find no rest till we find rest in thee.
Give what You command and command what You will.
Love and do as you will.
