Life is so uncertain, that happiness must be seized at the moment it presents itself.
When unbridled love enters the heart, it gnaws away at all other feelings; it lives at the expense of honor, faith, and the given word.
Everything fits in the brief. Small is the child and contains the man; narrow is the brain and shelters the thought; the eye is no more than a point and spans leagues.
We believe, above all because it is easier to believe than to doubt, and also because faith is the sister of hope and charity.
Mothers always forgive: they have come into the world for that.
