The greatest kindness one can render to any man is leading him to truth.

Lust indulged became habit, and habit unresisted became necessity.

There is another form of temptation, even more fraught with danger. This is the disease of curiosity. It is this which drives us to try and discover the secrets of nature, those secrets which are beyond our understanding, which can avail us nothing and which man should not wish to learn.

It seems to me that an unjust law is no law at all.

Every morning you put on your clothes to cover your nakedness and protect your body from inclement weather. Why don't you also clothe your soul with the garment of faith? Remember each morning the truths of your creed, and look at yourself in the mirror of your faith. Otherwise, your soul will soon be naked with the nakedness of oblivion.

God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them.
