If thou art willing to suffer no adversity, how wilt thou be the friend of Christ?
If thou wilt receive profit, read with humility, simplicity and faith, and seek not at any time the fame of being learned.
Oh, how quickly the world's glory passes away.
Of two evils we must always choose the least.
Thy peace shall be in much patience.
Love is a great thing, yea, a great and thorough good. By itself it makes what is heavy light; and bears evenly all that is uneven.
