¶"As Horace said: 'If you would make me weep, you must weep first.' Unless we cast a few sparks, how shall the convert catch fire?"

¶"No gratuity should ever be accepted from a convert, not even a stole fee at baptism. They will hear plenty of money sermons later on, and it would be a good idea to start them off with a memory of never having heard money from the priest who instructed them."

¶"Win an argument and you lose a soul. When a discussion becomes purely dialectical, we lose the purpose of instructions."

¶"There are three rules of dealing with all those who come to us: 1) KINDNESS, 2) KINDNESS, 3) KINDNESS."

†Including Alaska and the Hawaiian Islands.
