Do Not Fret Under Such Assistance As Is Needful; Therein Lies One Great Grace Of Poverty. It Were Overambitious To Aim At Being Poor Without Suffering Any Inconvenience, In Other Words, To Have The Credit Of Poverty And The Convenience Of Riches.

When You Encounter Difficulties And Contradictions, Do Not Try To Break Them, But Bend Them With Gentleness And Time.

Friendships Begun In This World Will Be Taken Up Again, Never To Be Broken Off.

The Truly Patient Man Neither Complains Of His Hard Lot Nor Desires To Be Pitied By Others. He Speaks Of His Sufferings In A Natural, True, And Sincere Way, Without Murmuring, Complaining, Or Exaggerating Them.

Truly It Is A Blessed Thing To Love On Earth As We Hope To Love In Heaven, And To Begin That Friendship Here Which Is To Endure For Ever There.
