"No one will calmly and quietly submit to bear the cross except those who have learned to seek their happiness beyond this world."

Jesus has many who love the kingdom of God, but few who bear a cross. He has many who desire His comfort, but few who desire His suffering. All want to rejoice with him, but few are willing to suffer for Him. He writes; there are many who admire his miracles, but there are few who follow in the humiliation of the cross.

— Thomas a Kempis
