Remember to consider…
Remember to consider only Christ in the person of the poor. Serve them always as you would serve Christ himself.

Do not discriminate among the sick. Give aid to all without exception; your vocation obliges you not to exclude anyone, for everybody is your neighbor.

When one man helps another by word or deed, let them both recognize in this the grace of God.
