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.

Do not let your peace depend on what people say of you... True peace and joy is to be found in [Jesus] alone.

Man considers the actions, but God weighs the intentions.

Study, therefore, to withdraw the love of your soul from all things that are visible, and turn it to things that are invisible.

Constantly choose rather to want less, than to have more.

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

The more humble and obedient to God a man is, the more wise and at peace he will be in all that he does.
