Nothing is sweeter than love, nothing stronger, nothing higher, nothing more sublime, nothing more expansive, nothing more joyful, nothing more abundant, nothing more pleasing in Heaven or on earth ; because love is born of God, nor can it rest upon created things, but only in God
He who is too sure in time of peace, will often show himself to be downcast or fearful in time of war.
He who is in perfect peace suspects no man. But he who is discontented and disturbed is agitated by various suspicions; he neither has rest himself, nor does he permit others to rest.

Do not worry about tomorrow, it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.
First keep yourself in peace and then you will be able to bring others to peace. The peaceable man does more good than one who is very learned.
Grant me, O God, strength and courage to restrain the desires of my heart, that I may be free to possess you, Amen.
