He Who Plants Kindness Gathers Love.

We Men Are Easily Prone To Sins Of Thought. Therefore, He Who Has Formed Each Heart Individually, Knowing That The Impulse Received From The Intention Constitutes The Major Element In Sin, Has Ordained That Purity In The Ruling Part Of Our Soul Be Our Primary Concern.

God Who Created Us Has Granted Us The Faculty Of Speech That We Might Disclose The Counsels Of Our Hearts To One Another And That, Since We Possess Our Human Nature In Common, Each Of Us Might Share His Thoughts With His Neighbor, Bringing Them Forth From The Secret Recesses Of The Heart As From A Treasury.

... If, To Me, To Live Is Christ (phil. 1:21), Truly My Words Ought To Be About Christ, My Every Thought And Deed Ought To Depend Upon His Commandments, And My Soul To Be Fashioned After His.

All These Stupendous Objects Are Daily Around Us; But Because They Are Constantly Exposed To Our View, They Never Affect Our Minds, So Natural Is It For Us To Admire New, Rather Than Grand Objects. Therefore The Vast Multitude Of Stars Which Diversify The Beauty Of This Immense Body Does Not Call The People Together; But When Any Change Happens Therein, The Eyes Of All Are Fixed Upon The Heavens.

We Should Not Think That We Achieve Success In Preaching Through Our Own Devices, But We Should Rely Entirely On God.
