True Humility Scarcely Ever Utters Words Of

It Is A Great Imperfection To Complain Unceasingly Of Little Things.

Represent To Yourself A Dark City All Burning And Stinking With Fire And Brimstone. The Damned Are In The Depth Of Hell Within This Woful City, Where They Suffer Unspeakable Torments In All Their Senses And Members. Consider Above All The Eternity Of Their Pains, Which Above All Things Makes Hell Intolerable.

Provided That God Be Glorified, We Must Not Care By Whom.

Have Patience With All Things, But Chiefly Have Patience With Yourself. Do Not Lose Courage In Considering Your Own Imperfections But Instantly Set About Remedying Them -- Every Day Begin The Task Anew.

If After All Your Efforts You Cannot Succeed, You Could Not Please Our Lord More Than By Sacrificing To Him Your Will, And Remaining In Tranquility, Humility, And Devotion, Entirely Conformed And Submissive To His Divine Will And Good Pleasure.
