““First, that we should love God with our whole heart—that is to say that our thoughts should always be truly directed towards him: and with our whole soul, that is that we should say nothing but what is true, even though we die for it: and with our whole strength, that is that we should perform all our works solely for him; and that we should love ourselves as we ought, that is that doing so we should not look to our advantage but to the perfect will of God: and that we should love our neighbors as ourselves, 3 that is that we should not do or think or say towards our neighbors anything we would not wish them to do to us. These precepts are necessary to all men for their salvation: 4 by no lesser manner of life can anyone have grace.””
