The More Deeply We Are Our True

I Have Often Said That A Person Who Wishes To Begin A Good Life Should Be Like One Who Draws A Circle. Let Him Or Her Get The Center In The Right Place And Keep It So And The Circumference Will Be Good.

As God Can Only Be Seen By His Own Light, So He Can Only Be Loved By His Own Love.

Whatever Thou Sayest Of God Is Untrue.

No Man Was Ever Lost Except For One Reason: Having Once Left His Ground He Has Let Himself Become Too Permanently Settled Abroad.

If I Had A Friend And Loved Him Because Of The Benefits Which This Brought Me And Because Of Getting My Own Way, Then It Would Not Be My Friend That I Loved But Myself. I Should Love My Friend On Account Of His Own Goodness And Virtues And Account Of All That He Is In Himself. Only If I Love My Friend In This Way Do I Love Him Properly.
