Saint Francis de Sales

Those who love to be feared fear to be loved…

Never be in a hurry do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not…

When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them…

Make friends with the angels, who though invisible are always with you. Often invoke them…

Have patience with all things, But, first of all with yourself…

There was never an angry man that thought his anger unjust…

A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship…

Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength…

Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections…
