Christ was willing to suffer wrongs and to be despised, and do you dare to complain of anything?.

If thou be not busy for thyself now, who shall be busy for thee in time to come?

All His glory and beauty come from within, and there He delights to dwell, His visits there are frequent, His conversation sweet, His comforts refreshing; and His peace passing all understanding.

Have therefore zeal to better thyself and then mayst thou have zeal to thy neighbor.

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

A man that is well ordered in his soul needeth little the unkind demeanor of worldly people nor yet their proud behavior.

For things that worth little or nothing we care a lot; and we oversight what is necessary; because every man goes towards the exterior; and if he doesn't regain consciousness quickly, with pleasure remain involved in it.
