“Do not those who always seek consolation deserve to be called mercenaries? Do not those who always think of their own profit and gain prove that they love themselves rather than Christ?

And who shall find a man so truly poor in spirit as to be free from every creature? His value is like that of things brought from the most distant lands.”
― Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ

“Carry your cross without crucifying yourself.”
