- In the first place, he who prays for the cure of another must surely be blessed, because goodwill and love, from which his prayer rises, of necessity bring a blessing to him.
- Also prayer for one's own cure is not selfish, it is making oneself a fitting instrument to be more useful in the scheme of life.
- On the other hand, neglect of one's own health very often is a crime.
- Praying to God in thought is perhaps better than in speech, but it must be remembered that speech makes it concrete; therefore thought with speech makes prayer more effective than thought alone.
- Words without thought are vain repetitions.
