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

Great tranquility of heart is his who cares for neither praise nor blame.

Oh, how great peace and quietness would he possess who should cut off all vain anxiety and place all his confidence in God.

May not be your peace in the mouth of the men; since no matter if they thing good or bad about you, you should not be a different man because of that.

Therefore, a man ought to root himself so firmly in God that he will not need the consolations of men.

He rides pleasantly enough whom the grace of God carries.

Be at peace with yourself first and then you will be able to bring peace to others.
