We Are Not To Choose The Manner

Nothing Is More False And More Indiscreet Than Always To Want To Choose What Mortifies Us In Everything. By This Rule A Person Would Soon Ruin His Health, His Business, His Reputation, His Relations With His Relatives And Friends, In Fact Every Good Work Which Providence Gives Him.

God, Who Is Liberal In All His Other Gifts, Shows Us, By The Wise Economy Of His Providence, How Circumspect We Ought To Be In The Management Of Our Time, For He Never Gives Us Two Moments Together.

No Human Power Can Force The Intrenchments Of The Human Mind: Compulsion Never Persuades; It Only Makes Hypocrites.

I Would Have No Desire Other Than To Accomplish Thy Will. Teach Me To Pray; Pray Thyself In Me.

Nothing Is So Costly As The Pursuit Of A Cure For Imaginary Ills.
