“God might grant us riches, honours, life, and even health, to our own hurt; for every thing that is pleasing to us is not always good for us. If he sends us death, or an increase of sickness, instead of a cure, Vvrga tua et baculus, tuus ipsa me consolata sunt. "Thy rod and thy staff have comforted me," he does it by the rule of his providence, which better and more certainly discerns what is proper for us than we can do; and we ought to take it in good part, as coming from a wise and most friendly hand.”

“God Mithra, showed that it is not good to just take whenever and whatever you want. It is also okay to refuse to take when you can.

He was the shepherd with the spear in his hands, breaking the bones of those who dared to hurt the defenseless.”

I promise.”
