Thomas a Kempis

Thomas a Kempis
No man is safe above but he that will gladly be beneath.
Thomas a Kempis

Thomas a Kempis

Thomas a Kempis
Be assured that if you knew all, you would pardon all.
Thomas a Kempis
Occasions of adversity best discover how great virtue or strength each one hath. For occasions do not make a man frail, but they show what he is.
Thomas a Kempis
A wise and good man will turn examples of all sorts to his own advantage. The good he will make his patterns, and strive to equal or excel them. The bad he will by all means avoid.
Thomas a Kempis
Always be ready always live in such a way that death can never find you unprepared.
