Mount Calvary Is The Academy Of Love.

It Is The Mark Of A Mean, Vulgar And Ignoble Spirit To Dwell On The Thought Of Food Before Meal Times Or Worse To Dwell On It Afterwards, To Discuss It And Wallow In The Remembered Pleasures Of Every Mouthful. Those Whose Minds Dwell Before Dinner On The Spit, And After On The Dishes, Are Fit Only To Be Scullions.

When You Encounter Difficulties And Contradictions, Do Not Try To Break Them, But Bend Them With Gentleness And Time.

The Enemy Often Tries To Make Us Attempt And Start Many Projects So That We Will Be Overwhelmed With Too Many Tasks, And Therefore Achieve Nothing And Leave Everything Unfinished. Sometimes He Even Suggests The Wish To Undertake Some Excellent Work That He Foresees We Will Never Accomplish. This Is To Distract Us From The Prosecution Of Some Less Excellent Work That We Would Have Easily Completed. He Does Not Care How Many Plans And Beginnings We Make, Provided Nothing Is Finished.

Whatever Happens, Abide Steadfast In A Determination To Cling Simply To God.

One Single Act Done With Aridity Of Spirit Is Worth More Than Many Done With Feelings Of Devotion.
