As the saints will rejoice in all goods, so will the damned grieve for all goods.

The greatest kindness one can render to any man consists in leading him from error to truth.

Wonder is the desire of knowledge.

God has no need for our worship. It is we who need to show our gratitude for what we have received.

Pray thee, spare, thyself at times: for it becomes a wise man sometimes to relax the high pressure of his attention to work.

It is clear that he does not pray, who, far from uplifting himself to God, requires that God shall lower Himself to him, and who resorts to prayer not to stir the man in us to will what God wills, but only to persuade God to will what the man in us wills.

He that obstinately denieth the truth before men upon earth, wilfully refuseth his soul's health in heaven.
