Courage Is A Virtue Only So Far

Time Is Given Us That We May Take Care For Eternity; And Eternity Will Not Be Too Long To Regret The Loss Of Our Time If We Have Misspent It.

I Believe That We Are Conforming To The Divine Order And The Will Of Providence When We Are Doing Even Indifferent Things That Belong To Our Condition.

When Kings Interfere In Matters Of Religion, They Enslave Instead Of Protecting It.

I Am Not In The Least Surprised That Your Impression Of Death Becomes More Lively, In Proportion As Age And Infirmity Bring It Nearer. God Makes Use Of This Rough Trial To Undeceive Us In Respect To Our Courage, To Make Us Feel Our Weakness, And To Keep Us In All Humility In His Hands.

Oh! How Seldom The Soul Is Silent, In Order That God May Speak.
