More quotes by Thomas a Kempis
He will be with you also, all the way, that faithful God. Every morning when you awaken to the old and tolerable pain, at every mile of the hot uphill dusty road of tiring duty, on to the judgment seat, the same Christ there as ever, still loving you, still sufficient for you, even then. And then, on through all eternity.
Thomas a Kempis
No man doth safely rule, but he that hath learned gladly to obey.
Thomas a Kempis
Don't think so much about who is for or against you, rather give all your care, that God be with you in everything you do.
Thomas a Kempis
When anger enters the mind, wisdom departs.
Thomas a Kempis
Carry the cross patiently, and with perfect submission and in the end it shall carry you.
Thomas a Kempis

Thomas a Kempis
Whatever you do, do it with intelligence, and keep the end in view.
Thomas a Kempis
The better you understand yourself the less cause you will find to love yourself.
Thomas a Kempis
Scruples, temptations, and fears, and cutting perplexities of the heart, are often the lot of the most excellent persons.
Thomas a Kempis
Do what lieth in thy power, and God will assist in thy good will.
Thomas a Kempis
Ah, Lord God, thou holy lover of my soul, when thou comest into my heart, all that is within me shall rejoice.
Thomas a Kempis
Be thankful for the smallest blessing and you will deserve to receive greater. Value the least gifts no less than the greatest, and simple graces as especial favors. If you remember the dignity of the Giver, no gift will seem small or mean.
Thomas a Kempis
Be Yourself -The man who is neither bent upon pleasing his fellows nor afraid of offending them will enjoy great peace.
Thomas a Kempis
Don't flatter the rich, or appear to willing before the great.
Thomas a Kempis
