So I live among barbarous tribes, a stranger and exile for the love of God.

---

If I have any worth, it is to live my life for God.

---

I am imperfect in many things, nevertheless I want my brethren and kinsfolk to know my nature so that they may be able to perceive my soul's desire.

---

I pray to God to give me perseverance and to deign that I be a faithful witness to Him to the end of my life for my God.

---

No one should ever say that it was my ignorance if I did or showed forth anything however small according to God's good pleasure; but let this be your conclusion and let it so be thought, that - as is the perfect truth - it was the gift of God.

---

Never trust a dog to watch your food.

---

Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me.

---

Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ within me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me.

---

Sufficient to say, greed is a deadly deed. You shall not covet your neighbor's goods.

---

For after chastisement from God, and recognizing him, our way to repay him is to exalt him and confess his wonders before every nation under heaven.
