“In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro.(Everywhere I have sought peace and not found it, except in a corner with a book.)”

“In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro”

“In omnibus requiem quaesivi, sed non inveni, nisi in hoexkens ende boexkens""I have sought everywhere for peace, but I have found it not save in a little nook and in a little book.”

“O quam salubre, quam iucundum et suave est sedere in solitudine et tacere et loqui cum Deo!”

“All men desire peace, but very few desire those things that make for peace.”

“Qui sait le mieux souffrir possédra la plus grande paix. Celui-là est vainqueur de soi et maître du monde, ami de Jésus-Christ et héritier du ciel.”

“All that is in the world is vanity except to love God and serve him only.”
