A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.
Saint Francis de Sales

Be who you are and be that well.
Saint Francis de Sales

Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly.
Saint Francis de Sales

Friendships begun in this world will be taken up again, never to be broken off.
Saint Francis de Sales

Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.
Saint Francis de Sales

Make friends with the angels, who though invisible are always with you. Often invoke them, constantly praise them, and make good use of their help and assistance in all your temporal and spiritual affairs.
Saint Francis de Sales

Have patience with all things, But, first of all with yourself.
Saint Francis de Sales

Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.
Saint Francis de Sales
