A slight failing in one virtue is enough to put all the others to sleep.

Whenever conscience commands anything, there is only one thing to fear, and that is fear.

There are more tears shed over answered prayers than over unanswered prayers.

Let nothing disturb thee, let nothing affright thee. All things are passing. Patience obtains all things. He who has God has everything - God alone suffices.

Do not think you have gained a virtue unless you have first been tried by its opposite.

Never do anything which you could not do in the sight of all.

All blessings come to us through our Lord. He will teach us, for in beholding His life we find that He is the best example.
