There Are No Galley-slaves In The Royal

One Great Remedy Against All Manner Of Temptation, Great Or Small, Is To Open The Heart And Lay Bare Its Suggestion, Likings, And Dislikings Before Some Spiritual Adviser; For, . . . The First Condition Which The Evil One Makes With A Soul, When He Wants To Entrap It, Is Silence.

Be Patient With Everyone, But Above All With Yourself. I Mean Do Not Be Disheartened By Your Imperfections, But Always Rise Up With Fresh Courage

Better Make Penitents By Gentleness Than Hypocrites By Severity.

Humility Makes Our Lives Acceptable To God, Meekness Makes Us Acceptable To Men.

If The Heart Wanders Or Is Distracted, Bring It Back To The Point Quite Gently... And Even If You Did Nothing During The Whole Of Your Hour But Bring Your Heart Back, Though It Went Away Every Time You Brought It Back, Your Hour Would Be Very Well Employed.
