If I have any worth, it is to live my life for God.

The Lord opened the understanding of my unbelieving heart, so that I should recall my sins.

I am Patrick, a sinner, most uncultivated and least of all the faithful and despised in the eyes of many.

Sufficient to say, greed is a deadly deed. You shall not covet your neighbor's goods.

Let anyone laugh and taunt if he so wishes. I am not keeping silent, nor am I hiding the signs and wonders that were shown to me by the Lord many years before they happened, who knew everything, even before the beginning of time.

Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ within me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me.

He [God] watched over me before I knew him, and before I learned sense or even distinguished between good and evil, and he protected me, and consoled me as a father would his son.
