St. Jerome
The scars of others should teach us caution.
St. Jerome

St. Jerome
It is our part to seek, His to grant what we ask ours to make a beginning, His to bring it to completion ours to offer what we can, His to finish what we cannot.
St. Jerome

St. Jerome
Seek to learn on earth those truths which will remain ever valid in Heaven

St. Jerome
Do not let your deeds belie your words, lest when you speak in church someone may say to himself, Why do you not practice what you preach?
St. Jerome
The charges we bring against others often come home to ourselves we inveigh against faults which are as much ours as theirs and so our eloquence ends by telling against ourselves.
St. Jerome
It is easier to mend neglect than to quicken love.
St. Jerome
The truly miserable have a timbre in their voices strong enough to erase smiles from the faces and souls of the contented.
St. Jerome
