By attention to the mortification of self-love we shall become Saints in a short time. When you are contradicted, give up your opinion with cheerfulness, unless the glory of God require that you maintain it. If you receive a letter, restrain your curiosity, and abstain from opening it for some time. A thousand acts of this kind may be performed every day.
