God's Treasury Where He Keeps His Children's

Pure Love Is In The Will Alone; It Is No Sentimental Love, For The Imagination Has No Part In It; It Loves, If We May So Express It, Without Feeling, As Faith Believes Without Seeing.

All Wars Are Civil Ones; For It Is Still Man Spilling His Own Blood, Tearing Out His Own Bowels.

Wine Is The Source Of The Greatest Evils Among Communities. It Causes Diseases, Quarrels, Seditions, Idleness, Aversion To Labor, And Family Disorders. . . . It Is A Species Of Poison That Causes Madness. It Does Not Make A Man Die, But It Degrades Him Into A Brute. Men May Preserve Their Health And Vigor Without Wine; With Wine They Run The Risk Of Ruining Their Health And Losing Their Morals.

Genuine Good Taste Consists In Saying Much In Few Words, In Choosing Among Our Thoughts, In Having Order And Arrangement In What We Say, And In Speaking With Composure.

As To Our Friend , I Pray God To Bestow Upon Him A Simplicity That Shall Give Him Peace . Happy Are They Indeed Who Can Bear Their Sufferings In The Enjoyment Of This Simple Peace And Perfect Acquiesence In The Will Of God.
