Cling, therefore, to Jesus in life and death; trust yourself to the glory of Him who alone can help you when all others fail.

If you desire to know or learn anything to your advantage, then take delight in being unknown and unregarded. A true understanding and humble estimate of oneself is the highest and most valuable of all lessons.

Oh, how swiftly the glory of the world passes away!

Have therefore zeal to better thyself and then mayst thou have zeal to thy neighbor.

What thou art, that thou art; that God knoweth thee to be and thou canst be said to be no greater.

In Jesus and for Him, enemies and friends alike are to be loved.

Be thankful for the smallest blessing and you will deserve to receive greater. Value the least gifts no less than the greatest, and simple graces as especial favors. If you remember the dignity of the Giver, no gift will seem small or mean.
