For Nothing, How Little Soever, That Is

No Confict Is So Severe As His Who Labors To Subdue Himself.

Always Keep A Good Distance Between Yourself And Lying, Quarreling, Detracting, Insulting And Gossip. The Person Who Can Do That Will Some Day Learn To Enjoy The Silence.

If Thou Wilt Receive Profit, Read With Humility, Simplicity And Faith, And Seek Not At Any Time The Fame Of Being Learned.

Remember Always Your End, And That Lost Time Does Not Return.

A Disciple Once Complained, "you Tell Us Stories, But You Never Reveal Their Meaning To Us." The Master Replied, "how Would You Like It If Someone Offered You Fruit And Then Chewed It Up For You Before Giving It To You?" If Your Heart Is Straight With God, Then Every Creature Will Be To You A Mirror Of Life And A Book Of Holy Doctrine.
