Whoever puts his confidence in men or in any creature is very foolish.

Whoever finds Jesus, finds a rich treasure, and a good above every good. He who loses Jesus loses much indeed, and more than the whole world. Poorest of all is he who lives without Jesus, and richest of all is he who stands in favor with Jesus.

For a small reward, a man will hurry away on a long journey; while for eternal life, many will hardly take a single step.

Occasions do not make a man either strong or weak but they show what he is.

What difference does it make to you what someone else becomes, or says, or does? You do not need to answer for others, only for yourself.

Sweet shall be your rest if your heart does not reproach you.

Don't flatter the rich, or appear to willing before the great.
