I do nothing but go about persuading you all, old and young alike, not to take thought for your persons or your properties, but and chiefly to care about the greatest improvement of the soul.

If and when he is ready, the other will of himself reach out for consolation and feel free to ask for a hand to point out the way. (Imgard Schloegl)
