Habit is overcome by habit.

My child, it will be better for you if you accept my decisions without complaint. Do not ask me to defend my actions or to explain why one person is favored and another seems slighted. The answers to these questions go far beyond your comprehension.

Always be ready; always live in such a way that death can never find you unprepared.

Faith is required of thee, and a sincere life, not loftiness of intellect, nor deepness in the mysteries of God.

Always be thou prepared, and so live that death may never find thee unprepared.

Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility; for it thinks all things lawful for itself, and all things possible.

Learn to humble yourself, you are but earth and clay.
