Our Own Opinion Of Ourselves Should Be

No Man Ruleth Safely But He That Is Willingly Ruled.

Our Dependence Upon God Ought To Be So Entire And Absolute That We Should Never Think It Necessary, In Any Kind Of Distress, To Have Recourse To Human Consolations.

All Men Commend Patience, Although Few Are Willing To Practice It.

Purity And Simplicity Are The Two Wings With Which Man Soars Above The Earth And All Temporary Nature.

If God Were Our One And Only Desire We Would Not Be So Easily Upset When Our Opinions Do Not Find Outside Acceptance.
