While I am busy with little things, I am not required to do greater things.

Those who pray from the heart do not think about the prayer they are saying, but about the God to whom they pray.

It matters little how one begins, provided that he be resolved to go on well, and to end well.

All of us can attain to Christian virtue and holiness, no matter in what condition of life we live and no matter what our life work may be.

He prays well who is so absorbed with God that he does not know he is praying.

To lose ourselves in God is simply to give up our own will to Him. When a soul can truly say Lord I have no other will than Thine it is truly lost in God and united to Him.

If you have to do with one who is unquestionably a slanderer, do not excuse him by calling him frank and free-spoken; do not call one who is notoriously vain, liberal and elegant; do not call dangerous levities mere simplicity; do not screen disobedience under the name of zeal; or arrogance, of frankness; or evil intimacy, of friendship. No, my friends, we must never, in our wish to shun slander, foster or flatter vice in others: but we must call evil evil, and sin sin, and so doing we shall serve God's glory.
