I Would Have No Desire Other Than

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.

Never Let Us Be Discouraged With Ourselves. It Is Not When We Are Conscious Of Our Faults That We Are The Most Wicked; On The Contrary, We Are Less So. We See By A Brighter Light; And Let Us Remember For Our Consolation, That We Never Perceive Our Sins Till We Begin To Cure Them.

I No Longer Desire Anything But To Be Thine.

We May Be Sure That It Is The Love Of God Only That Can Make Us Come Out Of Self. If His Powerful Hand Did Not Sustain Us, We Should Not Know How To Take The First Step In That Direction.

There Are Some People Who Think That They Should Be Always Mourning, That They Should Put A Continual Constraint Upon Themselves, And Feel A Disgust For Those Amusements To Which They Are Obliged To Submit. For My Own Part, I Confess That I Know Not How To Conform Myself To These Rigid Notions. I Prefer Something More Simple, Which I Also Think Would Be More Pleasing To God.
