“Não tenha demasiado desejo de saber, porque nele achará grande distração e engano. Os sábios gostam de ser tidos e aplaudidos por tais. Muitas coisas há cujo conhecimento pouco ou nada aproveita à alma, e muito insensato é quem se aplica exageradamente às coisas que não conduzem à salvação. As muitas palavras não satisfazem a alma; mas a boa vida lhe dá bem-estar, e a consciência pura causa grande confiança em Deus.”

“temptation cannot cross the limit set to it by the divine good pleasure; it always has a providential purpose; it attacks us on our weak side, and obliges us to fortify that; it instructs us, spurs us on, crushes pride, excites to prayer, calls for austerities and elicits great resolutions; thus the demon becomes, in his own despite, one of the most active agents of our union with God.”
