Man Considers The Actions, But God Weighs

Do Not Try To Find A Place Free From Temptations And Troubles. Rather, Seek A Peace That Endures Even When You Are Beset By Various Temptations And Tried By Much Adversity.

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.

Grant Me Prudently To Avoid Him That Flatters Me, And To Endure Patiently Him That Contradicts Me.

Seek Not To Know Who Said This Or That, But Take Note Of What Has Been Said.

Constantly Choose Rather To Want Less, Than To Have More.
