Prayer is an act of love; words are not needed. Even if sickness distracts from thoughts, all that is needed is the will to love.

May God protect me from gloomy saints.

More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones

For prayer is nothing else than being on terms of friendship with God.

Anyone who truly loves God travels securely

I do not fear Satan half so much as I fear those who fear him

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself

The tree that is beside the running water is fresher and gives more fruit.

“To educate a person in the mind but not in morals is to educate a menace to society.”

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
