Francis of Assisi

Holy humility confounds pride and all the men of this world and all things that are in the world. ”

Holy poverty confounds cupidity and avarice and the cares of this world. ”

Great and glorious God, and Thou Lord Jesus, I pray you shed abroad your light in the darkness of my mind. Be found of me, Lord, so that in all things I may act only in accordance with Thy holy will. ”

We should never desire to be over others. Instead, we ought to be servants who are submissive to every human being for God's sake. ”

If God can work through me, he can work through anyone. ”
