Peace in Your Heart

“You must first have peace in your own soul before you can make peace between other people. Peaceable people accomplish more good than learned people do.

If you observe good example, follow it; and if you see bad example, take care not to do the same; if you already fallen into this fault, work to correct it quickly. As your eyes observe others, be sure that you also are observed by them.

You will be happier for having kept silence than for all the long talks and the gossip; good deeds will be of greater value than clever words.”

Thomas Kempis
