“God has given this way of life to Israel: to abstain from everything which is contrary to nature, that is to say, anger, fits of passion, jealousy, hatred and slandering the brethren; in short, everything that is characteristic of the old man.”
“Our Father which art in heaven - Stay there - And we will stay on earth - Which is sometimes so pretty.”
