As God by creation made two of one, so again by marriage He made one of two.
He who demands mercy and shows none ruins the bridge over which he himself is to pass.
He that will be knighted must kneel for it, and he that will enter in at the strait gate must crowd for it-a gate made so on purpose, narrow and hard in the entrance, yet, after we have entered, wide and glorious, that after our pain our joy may be the sweeter.
Sins are so remitted, as if they had never been committed.
Passion costs me too much to bestow it on every trifle.
Blessed be God, I not only begin praying when I kneel down, but I do not leave off praying when I rise up.
