To love our neighbor in charity is to love God in man.

Nothing is more like a wise man than a fool who holds his tongue.

It is right that you should begin again every day. There is no better way to complete the spiritual life than to be ever beginning it over again.

Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.

Be who you are and do that well.

Chastity is the lily of virtues, and makes men almost equal to Angels. Everything is beautiful in accordance with its purity. Now the purity of man is chastity, which is called honesty, and the observance of it, honor and also integrity; and its contrary is called corruption; in short, it has this peculiar excellence above the other virtues, that it preserves both soul and body fair and unspotted.

Have patience to walk with short steps until you have wings to fly.
