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.

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

The better you understand yourself the less cause you will find to love yourself.

Thy peace shall be in much patience.

We must imitate Christ's life and his ways if we are to be truly enlightened and set free from the darkness of our own hearts. Let it be the most important thing we do, then, to reflect on the life of Jesus Christ.

Without labor there is no rest, nor without fighting can the victory be won.
