Text Quotes
The more afflictions you have been under, the more assistance you have had for this life of holiness  (Afflictions Quotes) The winter prepares the earth for the spring, so do afflictions sanctified prepare the soul for glory  (Afflictions Quotes) At the same, we need to remain sensitive to the reality that we are still an African society in which the majority of the people and communities live under severe deprivations and afflictions that are no fault of theirs  (Afflictions Quotes) New materials are one of the great afflictions of contemporary art. Some artists confuse new materials with new ideas  (Afflictions Quotes) In mature years I have always been gregarious, a lover of my kind, dependent upon the company of friends for the very pulse of moral life. To be marooned, to be shut up in a solitary cell, to inhabit a lighthouse, or to camp alone in a forest, these have always seemed to me afflictions too heavy to be borne, even in imagination. A state in which conversation exists not, is for me an air too empty of oxygen for my lungs to breathe it  (Afflictions Quotes) No one can shed light on vices he does not have or afflictions he has ever experienced  (Afflictions Quotes) There is no enemy can hurt us but by our own hands. Satan could not hurt us, if our own corruption betrayed us not. Afflictions cannot hurt us without our own impatience. Temptations cannot hurt us, without our own yieldance. Death could not hurt us, without the sting of our own sins. Sins could not hurt us, without our own impenitence  (Afflictions Quotes) Afflictions, like bills and pikes, make a terrible show when they cannot reach us; but the temptations of prosperity, like unseen bullets, wound and kill us before they are discerned  (Afflictions Quotes) God never gives up on us no matter how hard we try to get ourselves loose. God does not let go. That doesn’t mean he controls everything we do. It doesn’t mean he puts a bridle on us and leads us by the nose. He gives each one of us free will and common sense and a spirit that can communicate with his. When we go through afflictions, he allows us to choose our response. But no matter what our response may be, he sticks around to the bitter end  (Afflictions Quotes) I blush easily. I have difficulty meeting people’s eye, difficulty with public speaking, the normal afflictions of the shy, but not to a paralysing degree  (Afflictions Quotes) One drop of the sweetness of heaven is enough to take away all the sourness and bitterness of all the afflictions in the world  (Afflictions Quotes) A doctrine of endurance flows easily from our lips when we are enduring jam and our neighbors dry bread, and it is still possible for us to become resigned to the afflictions of our brother  (Afflictions Quotes) The goal of meditation is precisely to make your mind smooth and manageable so that it can be concentrated or relaxed at will; and especially to free it from the tyranny of mental afflictions and confusion  (Afflictions Quotes) All our afflictions, all our temptations are to make heaven more desirable, and earth more loathsome  (Afflictions Quotes) Prostitution is the most hideous of the afflictions produced by the unequal distribution of the world’s goods; this infamy stigmatizes the human species and bears witness against the social organization far more than does crime  (Afflictions Quotes) A good conscience is to the soul what health is to the body; it preserves constant ease and serenity within us; and more than countervails all the calamities and afflictions which can befall us from without  (Afflictions Quotes) Nothing can render affliction so insupportable as the load of sin. Would you then be fitted for afflictions? Be sure to get the burden of your sins laid aside, and then what affliction soever you may meet with will be very easy to you  (Afflictions Quotes)
