Therefore, A Man Ought To Root Himself

I Have Sought For Happiness Everywhere, But I Have Found It Nowhere Except In A Little Corner With A Little Book.

Some People Are Tempted Most Strongly At The Beginning Of Their Spiritual Life, Others Near The End. Some Are Troubled All Their Lives. Still Others Receive Only Light Temptation. Such Things Are Decided By God, And We Can Trust His Wisdom.

It Is Better To Be Affected With A True Penitent Sorrow For Sin Than To Be Able To Resolve The Most Difficult Cases About It.

The Only Safe Ruler Is He Who Has Learned To Obey Willingly.

So Fixed Are Our Spirits In Slothfulness And Cold Indifference That We Seldom Overcome So Much As One Evil Habit.
