Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.

The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world.

I do not understand what the man who is happy wants in order to be happier.

Alas! if the principles of contentment are not within us, the height of station and worldly grandeur will as soon add a cubit to a man's stature as to his happiness.

It [covetousness] is a sin against God, just as all mortal sins, in as much as man condemns things eternal for the sake of temporal things.

I would much rather be the trusting child of a rich Father, than a beggar at the door of worldly men.

A man in the right, with God on his side, is in the majority, though he be alone, for God is multitudinous above all populations of the earth.

The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.

You must do it alone.

Love Jesus and keep Him as your friend. When all others forsake you He will not leave you nor will He allow you to perish on the last day. Whether you like it or not the day will come when you will find yourself separated from everyone and from everything.

Give up everything, and you will gain everything; let go of your desires, and you will find peace.

Satisfaction = what you have ÷ what you want
