Additional quotes by Thomas à Kempis

Strive, My Son, to do another’s will rather than thine own. Choose always to have less rather than more. Seek always after the lowest place, and to be subject to all. Wish always and pray that the will of God be fulfilled in thee.

A passionate man turneth even good into evil and easily believeth evil; a good, peaceable man converteth all things into good.

What is all flesh in Thy sight? For how shall the clay boast against Him that fashioned it?
