Be Gentle To All And Stern With

Whenever Conscience Commands Anything, There Is Only One Thing To Fear, And That Is Fear.

To Reach Something Good It Is Very Useful To Have Gone Astray, And Thus Acquire Experience.

I Only Wish I Could Write With Both Hands, So As Not To Forget One Thing While I Am Saying Another.

We May Think It Humility Not To Realize That The Lord Is Bestowing Gifts Upon Us. Let Us Understand Very, Very Clearly, How This Matter Stands. God Gives Us These Gifts For No Merit Of Ours. Let Us Be Grateful To His Majesty For Them, For, Unless We Recognize That We Are Receiving Them, We Shall Not Be Aroused To Love Him. And It Is A Most Certain Thing That, If We Remember All The Time That We Are Poor, The Richer We Find Ourselves, The Greater Will Be The Profit That Comes To Us And The More Genuine Our Humility.

That Is How His Majesty [the Lord] Rewards Our Good Works---i Mean, By Predisposing Us To Perform Better Ones.
