安全获得一丁点零星的好东西， 比冒着失落永生的危险赚到一百件更好。 It is far better to procure a mere morsel of some one good thing safely than to gain a hundred at the risk of your salvation.

今天的事今天做，切莫拖延到明天。 Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.

如果天主只是给你一只小狗作向导， 请勿抱怨，仍顺从主命，怀着喜悦跟随。 If the guide God chooses for you to follow were only a little dog, you should not complain, but at God’s command follow it willingly and gladly.

你当视一个人的得救， 重于世间所有的财富。 Let one man’s salvation be more to you than all the riches in the world.

以温和及谦逊而非权威，更易得到他人的救赎；以让步而非斗争，更快达到目标。 You will be helped more in procuring another man’s salvation by meekness and humility than by authority; and you will gain your end sooner by yielding than by fighting.

情况越危急，越需要信赖天主。 当人无能为力时，天主的爱就在手边。 The more desperate things seem, the more must we hope in God. When man’s aid fails, God’s love is close at hand.

没有比爱天主更甜蜜， 促使你为爱衪容忍一切。 Nothing is sweeter than loving God — in such a way that you endure great things for His love.

风平浪静比狂风暴雨更恶劣， 毫无敌人比任何敌人更危险。 There is no storm worse than calm, and no foe more dangerous than to have no foes.

没有任何木柴可以比十字圣木更能燃烧天主的爱火。 There is no better wood for feeding the fire of God’s love than the wood of the Cross.

在茫莱撒以主为师学习一小时， 胜于世上所有老师所能传授的。 There is more to be learnt in one hour at Manresa with God for teacher than all the teachers in the world could impart.

由于对灵修事情冷淡怠惰，丧失神慰是理所当然的。 It is but just that we should be deprived of divine consolation, seeing how lukewarm we are in spiritual things.
