Whatever you do, do it with intelligence, and keep the end in view.

Intelligence must follow faith, never precede it, and never destroy it.

Happy is the man who renounces everything which may bring a stain or burden upon his conscience

Man proposes, but God disposes.

Trust not to your feelings for whatever they might be now, they will quickly be changed towards some other thing.

Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength.... It is therefore able to undertake all things, and it completes many things, and warrants them to take effect, where he who does not love would faint and lie down.

If thou may not continually gather thyself together, do it sometime at least once a day, morning or evening.
