Love is swift, sincere, pious, joyful, generous, strong, patient, faithful, prudent, long-suffering, courageous, and never seeking its own; for wheresoever a person seeketh his own, there he falleth from love.

And when he is out of sight, quickly also he is out of mind.

Though weary, it is not tired: though pressed it is not straightened; though alarmed, it is not confounded; but as a living flame it forces itself upwards and securely passes through all.

If you wish to live in peace and harmony with others, you must learn to discipline yourself in many ways.

So passes away the glory of this world. ('Sic transit gloria mundi.')
