Be good, keep your feet dry, your eyes open, your heart at peace and your soul in the joy of Christ.

Instead of hating the people you think are war-makers, hate the appetites and disorder in your own soul, which are the causes of war. If you love peace, then hate injustice, hate tyranny, hate greed - but hate these things in yourself, not in another.

We are not at peace with others because we are not at peace with ourselves, and we are not at peace with ourselves because we are not at peace with God

“A genuine smile comes from deep down in your soul. It is based on the pure joy, peace and happiness you have in your heart. If lost, the smile that replaces it is but a replication and will only last so long. Find your genuine smile, use it generously, and what you will receive in return for sharing it will be amazing."

Every moment and every event of every man's life on earth plants something in his soul.

Dear as the light that visits these sad eyes; / Dear as the ruddy drops that warm my heart.
