Ah, Lord God, thou holy lover of my soul, when thou comest into my heart, all that is within me shall rejoice.

Renounce all things, and thou shalt find all things; give up thy lust, and thou shalt find rest.

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

Do what lieth in thy power, and God will assist in thy good will.

No man ruleth safely but he that is willingly ruled.

Though weary, it is not tired: though pressed it is not straightened; though alarmed, it is not confounded; but as a living flame it forces itself upwards and securely passes through all.

Out of sight, out of mind. The absent are always in the wrong.
