Whoever would fully and feelingly understand the words of Christ, must endeavor to conform his life wholly to the life of Christ.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

A pure, sincere, and stable sp...

A pure, sincere, and stable spirit is not distracted though it be employed in many works; for that it works all to the honor of God, and inwardly being still and quiet, seeks not itself in any thing it doth.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

There is no creature so small ...

There is no creature so small and abject, that it representeth not the goodness of God.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

He is truly great that is grea...

He is truly great that is great in charity. He is truly great that is little in himself, and maketh no account of any height of honor. And he is truly learned that doeth the will of God, and forsaketh his own will.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

For they truly know their Lord...

For they truly know their Lord in the breaking of bread, whose heart within them so vehemently burneth, whilst Thou, O blessed Jesus, dost walk and converse with them.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

He that avoideth not small fau...

He that avoideth not small faults, by little and little falleth into greater.

Wheresoever we seek our own, there we fall from love.

Always be thou prepared, and so live that death may never find thee unprepared.

If thou hadst a good conscience thou wouldst not greatly fear death.

We are sometimes stirred by emotion and take it for zeal.

The measure of every man's vir...

The measure of every man's virtue is best revealed in time of adversity - adversity that does not weaken a man but rather shows what he is.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

Some people are tempted most s...

Some people are tempted most strongly at the beginning of their spiritual life, others near the end. Some are troubled all their lives. Still others receive only light temptation. Such things are decided by God, and we can trust his wisdom.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

No one is so good that he is i...

No one is so good that he is immune from temptation. We will never be entirely free from it. . . . There is no order so holy, no place so secret where there will be no temptation.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

Of two evils, the lesser must ...

Of two evils, the lesser must always be chosen De duobus malis, minus est semper eligendum

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

Anyone who is not totally dead...

Anyone who is not totally dead to himself will soon find that he is tempted and overcome by piddling and frivolous things. Whoever is weak in spirit, given to the flesh and inclined to sensual things can, but only with great difficulty, drag himself away from his earthly desires. Therefore he is often gloomy and sad when he is trying to pull himself away from them, and easily gives way to anger should someone attempt to oppose him.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

For it is the grace of Christ,...

For it is the grace of Christ, and not our own virtue, that gives us the power to overcome the flesh and the world.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

Gladly we desire to make other...

Gladly we desire to make other men perfect, but we will not amend our own fault.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

If you would endeavor, like me...

If you would endeavor, like men of courage, to stand in the battle, surely we would feel the favorable assistance of God from heaven. For he who give the us occasion to fight, to the end we may get the victory, is ready to succor those that fight manfully, and do trust in his grace.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

In the morning fix thy good pu...

In the morning fix thy good purpose; and at night examine thyself what thou hast done, how thou hast behaved thyself in word, deed, and thought.

Thomas Kempis 435 quotes

Grace is the mastery of truth,...

Grace is the mastery of truth, the teacher of discipline, the light of the heart, the comforter of affliction, the banisher of sorrow, the nurse of devotion.
