What we do is less than a drop in the ocean. But if it were missing, the ocean would lack something.

Purity, patience, and perseverance are the three essentials to success, and above all, love.

* * *

Be pure, staunch, and sincere to the backbone, and everything else will be all right.

Bring all light into the world. Let light come to everyone; the task will not be finished till everyone has reached the Lord. Bring light to the poor; and bring more light to the rich, for they require it more than the poor! Bring light to the ignorant, and more light to the educated, for the vanities of the education of our time are tremendous! Thus bring light to all and leave the rest unto the Lord.
