You are rewarded not according to your work or your time but according to the measure of your love.

You will do very well to refuse offices; for a man seldom fails to give offense in them. It ought to weary you simply to hear them mentioned.

avarice breeds envy, a worm that is always gnawing, letting the avaricious enjoy neither their own nor anyone else's good.

And let the truth be your delight...Proclaim it..., but with a certain congeniality.

Of course you are unworthy. But when do you hope to be worthy? You will be no more worthy at the end than at the beginning. God alone is worthy of Himself, He alone can make us worthy of Him.

There is nothing we can desire or want that we do not find in God.

The devil never sleeps.
