Wheresoever we seek our own, there we fall from love.

Two wings lift a person up from earthly concerns: Simplicity in intention, and Purity in feeling.

God often gives in one brief moment that which He has for a long time denied.

He is truly great who is little in his own eyes and makes nothing of the highest

He does much who loves God much, and he does much who does his deed well, and he does his deed well who does it rather for the common good than for his own will.

Love Him, and keep Him for thy Friend, who, when all go away, will not forsake thee, nor suffer thee to perish at the last.

Peace and happiness are what you covet, but these are only to be obtained by labor.
