Excerpt from Religious Maxims In whatever you are called upon to do, endeavour to maintain a calm, collected, and prayerful state of mind. Self-recollection is of great importance. It is good for a man to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord. He, who is in what may he called a Spiritual hurry, or rather who runs with out having evidence of being spiritually sent, makes haste to no purpose.
