Love is the hardest lesson in Christianity; but, for that reason, it should be most our care to learn it.

There can be no friendship where there is no freedom. Friendship loves a free air, and will not be fenced up in straight and narrow enclosures.

There can be no Friendship where there is no Freedom.

The way, like the cross, is spiritual: that is an inward submission of the soul to the will of God, as it is manifested by the light of Christ in the consciences of men, though it be contrary to their own inclinations.

Where Example keeps pace with Authority, Power hardly fails to be obey'd.

Interest has the security, though not the virtue of a principle. As the world goes, it is the surest side; for men daily leave both relations and religion to follow it.

Friendship is the union of spirits.
