So valuable to heaven is the dignity of the human soul that every member of the human race has a guardian angel from the moment the person begins to be.
Nothing is hard for lovers, no labor is difficult for those who wish it.
A fat stomach never breeds fine thoughts.
To saints their very slumber is a prayer.
Let us learn upon earth those things which can call us to heaven.
When the stomach is full, it is easy to talk of fasting.
