Those who love to be feared fear to be loved.

Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly.

When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.

Big fires flare up in a wind, but little ones are blown out unless they are carried in under cover.

One rarely does well what one rarely does.

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

I recommend to you holy simplicity.
