Saint Francis de Sales
-
Have patience with all things, But, first of all with yourself.
-
Never be in a hurry do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.
-
Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.
-
When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.
