One's distance from heaven is in proportion to the measure of one's
self-love.

Peace in the heavens is like spring in the world, gladdening all
things.

No two things mutually love each other more than do truth and good.

Love consists in desiring to give our own to another and in feeling as
our own his delight.

A wicked man may shun evils as _hurtful_; none but a Christian can
shun them as _sins_.

If a man studies the neighbor and the Lord more than himself, he is in
a state of regeneration.

The Lord acts mediately through heaven, not because he needs the aid
of the angels, but that they may have functions and offices, life and
happiness.

Good is like a little flame which gives light, and causes man to see,
perceive and believe.

Evil itself is disunion.

To serve the Lord is to be free.
