“No one still living ought ever to despair of the mercy of God; for there is hardly a tree so thorny and gnarled that men cannot make smooth and beautiful, and thus ornamental. So much the more, there is no sinner in the world so great whom God cannot adorn with grace and virtues.” Numquam . . . debet aliquis desperare dum vivit de misericordia Dei: quia vix est arbor ita spinosa et nodosa, quam non possunt homines plenam et pulchram facere, et eam ornare. Multo magis non est quis ita gravis peccator in mundo, quem non potest Deus gratia et virtutibus adornare. --Brother Giles of Assisi, Golden Sayings, On Faith and the Incomprehensibility of God, p. 8.
