Resolved, Never To Speak Evil Of Anyone,

Resolved, Never To Suffer The Least Motions Of Anger To Irrational Beings.

I Know Not How To Express Better, What My Sins Appear To Me To Be, Than By Heaping Infinite Upon Infinite, And Multiplying Infinite By Infinite . . . When I Look Into My Heart And Take A View Of My Wickedness, It Looks Like An Abyss Infinitely Deeper Than Hell.

The Pleasures Of Humility Are Really The Most Refined, Inward, And Exquisite Delights In The World.

Spiritual Delight In God Arises Chiefly From His Beauty And Perfection, Not From The Blessings He Gives Us.

God Is The Highest Good Of The Reasonable Creature. The Enjoyment Of Him Is Our Proper; And Is The Only Happiness With Which Our Souls Can Be Satisfied. To Go To Heaven, Fully To Enjoy God, Is Infinitely Better Than The Most Pleasant Accommodations Here. Better Than Fathers And Mothers, Husbands, Wives, Or Children, Or The Company Of Any, Or All Earthly Friends. These Are But Shadows; But The Enjoyment Of God Is The Substance. These Are But Scattered Beams; But God Is The Sun. These Are But Streams; But God Is The Fountain. These Are But Drops, But God Is The Ocean.
