When Anger Enters The Mind, Wisdom Departs.

Let All Your Thoughts Be With The Most High, And Direct Your Humble Prayers Unceasingly To Christ. If You Cannot Contemplate High And Heavenly Things, Take Refuge In The Passion Of Christ, And Love To Dwell Within His Sacred Wounds. For If You Devoutly Seek The Wounds Of Jesus And The Precious Marks Of His Passion, You Will Find Great Strength In All Troubles.

In The Cross Is Salvation; In The Cross Is Life; In The Cross Is Protection Against Our Enemies; In The Cross Is Infusion Of Heavenly Sweetness; In The Cross Is Strength Of Mind; In The Cross Is Joy Of Spirit; In The Cross Is Excellence Of Virtue; In The Cross Is Perfection Of Holiness. There Is No Salvation Of Soul, Nor Hope Of Eternal Life, Save In The Cross.

Few Spirits Are Made Better By The Pain And Languor Of Sickness; As Few Great Pilgrims Become Eminent Saints.

Always Keep A Good Distance Between Yourself And Lying, Quarreling, Detracting, Insulting And Gossip. The Person Who Can Do That Will Some Day Learn To Enjoy The Silence.

Set Me Free From Evil Passions, And Heal My Heart Of All Inordinate Affections; That Being Inwardly Cured And Thoroughly Cleansed, I May Be Made Fit To Love, Courageous To Suffer, Steady To Persevere.
