O How Quickly Passes Away The Glory

Forasmuch As Many People Study More To Have Knowledge Than To Live Well Therefore Ofttimes They Err And Bring Forth Little Fruit Or None.

It Is Easier Not To Speak A Word At All Than To Speak More Words Than We Should.

Oh, How Quickly The World's Glory Passes Away.

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.

The Humble Live In Continuous Peace, While In The Hearts Of The Proud Are Envy And Frequent Anger.
