Of Two Evils We Must

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.

If You Desire To Know Or Learn Anything To Your Advantage, Then Take Delight In Being Unknown And Unregarded. A True Understanding And Humble Estimate Of Oneself Is The Highest And Most Valuable Of All Lessons.

If You Bear The Cross Unwillingly, You Make It A Burden, And Load Yourself More Heavily; But You Must Bear It.

Thou Shalt Rest Sweetly If Thy Heart Condemn Thee Not.

A Disciple Once Complained, "you Tell Us Stories, But You Never Reveal Their Meaning To Us." The Master Replied, "how Would You Like It If Someone Offered You Fruit And Then Chewed It Up For You Before Giving It To You?" If Your Heart Is Straight With God, Then Every Creature Will Be To You A Mirror Of Life And A Book Of Holy Doctrine.
