Man sees your actions, but God your motives.

As iron put into the fire loseth its rust and becometh clearly red-hot, so he that wholly turneth himself unto God puts off all slothfulness, and is transformed into a new man.

For man plans, but God arranges.

Don't think so much about who is for or against you, rather give all your care, that God be with you in everything you do.

Wherever you go, you will always bear yourself about with you, and so you will always find yourself.

There is no man in this world without some manner of tribulation or anguish, though he be king or pope.

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