Wisdom Drought

Non eum totus mundus erigit, quem
veritas sibi subjecit; nec omnium lau-
dantium ore movebitur, qui totam
spem suam in Deo firmavit.

The whole world does not bear up
the one whom truth has subjected to itself;
nor will he be moved by the voice of all approvers,
who has completely strengthened his own hope in God.


- [Thomas à Kempis], De Imitatione Christi III.14.4
