If you always remember that whatever you are doing in the soul or in the body, God stands by as an inspector, you will never err (do wrong) in all your prayers and in all your acts, but you will have God dwelling with you. This is the doctrine of God being in man. See the Index. As it is pleasant to see the sea from the land, so it is pleasant for him who has escaped from troubles to think of them. Compare Lucretius ii. the beginning. Law intends indeed to do service to human life, but it is not able when men do not choose to accept her services; for it is only in those who are obedient to her that she displays her special virtue. As to the sick physicians are as saviours, so to those also who are wronged are the laws. The justest laws are those which are the truest.
