Seek Not To Know Who Said This

Love Is A Great Thing...which Alone Maketh Every Burden Light.. Love Is Watchful, And While Sleeping, Still Keeps Watch; Though Fatigued, It Is Not Weary; Though Pressed, It Is Not Forced. Love Is Sincere, Gentle, Strong, Patient, Faithful, Prudent, Long-suffering, And Manly. Love Is Humble And Upright, Not Weak, Not Fickle, Nor Intent On Vain Things; Sober Chaste, Steadfast, Quiet, And Guarded In All The Senses.

Faith Is Required Of Thee, And A Sincere Life, Not Loftiness Of Intellect, Nor Deepness In The Mysteries Of God.

Be Thankful For The Smallest Blessing And You Will Deserve To Receive Greater. Value The Least Gifts No Less Than The Greatest, And Simple Graces As Especial Favors. If You Remember The Dignity Of The Giver, No Gift Will Seem Small Or Mean.

A Man Of Peace Does More Good Than A Very Learned Man.

If You Bear The Cross Unwillingly, You Make It A Burden, And Load Yourself More Heavily; But You Must Bear It.
