Some of my favorite quotes..
Quotes by St Francis de Sales (found here)
"Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength."
“Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly
“Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections.”
“Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.”
“Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself.”
“Reputation is rarely proportioned to virtue.”
"If we say a little it is easy to add, but having said too much it is hard to withdraw and never can it be done so quickly as to hinder the harm of our success. "
"When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time."
"Always be as gentle as you can, and remember that more flies are caught with a spoonful of honey than with a hundred barrels of vinegar."
"The critic has to educate the public; the artist has to educate the critic."Oscar Wilde
