Nothing is more acceptable to God, nothing more wholesome for thee in this world, than to suffer willingly for Christ.
- Bk. II, ch. xii.

To a novice who was pitying herself she said: "God loves cheerful people who can always manage to smile. When will you learn to hide your troubles, and tell Our Lord with a song on your lips that you are glad to suffer for His sake?"
- C.
