Be slow to judge - since it's worth so little anyway, force yourself to forgive those who offend you right away, check your tongue from speaking badly of others, hear both sides first, don't trifle with uncharitable remarks, construction requires mastery while destruction any unskilled laborer can do, don't pass judgment on superiors, clashes with world's selfishness will help you appreciate fraternal charity, your ostentatious charity is repelling, brother helped by brother is a fortress.

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá 

Finish your work then your brother's too, God is hurt by your lack of charity towards Him, never think badly of anyone even with reason, don't criticize, never speak badly of your brother, gossip is disease that infects/poisons/wastes & destroys union with God, we all have weaknesses, Silence is preferable to how many people waste their lives rambling, difficult to speak well, don't be mischievous slandering backbiter, stop offending God with injustice!

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Both God's justice & mercy prove his love, madness of Love which is the blessed Eucharist, live by love to conquer, let your heart overflow, fear of God is holy, weep my son with love-sorrow, do not remain indifferent to God's death, crazy love for God, don't forget Sorrow touchstone of Love.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Your heart follows your treasure, Jesus loves you as much as when he wept for Lazarus, God teach me to love, let punishment from Love be reparation, you love me so much God, Christ is King/Love/God, due measure in everything except Love, if love gives so much consolation here imagine heaven, everything done from love acquires greatness & beauty, let me be last in everything & first in Love.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Only real love is God's, Love ennobles even most humiliating things, see God in children & the sick, how little a life is to offer God.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

False apostles are frontline leaders living inconsistent lives with false virtue, set fire to your love, Serviam - I will serve you, man of God gone lukewarm is pathetic & worse than fallen away, pay little heed to worldly victories or defeats, without Me you can do nothing.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Daring is not imprudent nor reckless, ask Jesus' pardon & love him madly with strength of all hearts ever in the world, when you need something tell Jesus you want it like a child, we never fail - try again, experience > failure, all action from supernatural motives = success, don't confuse rights of office with personal rights, sanctimony is caricature of sanctity, saintly virtues nothing without the ordinary virtues, don't have noisy virtue.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Don't worry what people say, no ridicule for man doing what's best, compromising condemns Jesus to death again, compromising reveals man without ideals/honor/faith, never yield an inch, holy intransigence is not bigotry, never compromise doctrine or conduct only manner, live holy intransigence, use force to stop suicide of both body & soul, do not commit crimes in the name of justice.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Holy intransigence + holy coercion + holy shamelessness, holy shamelessness > cheekiness, child does not hide weakness nor misery, laugh at ridicule.

---

from The Way (1934), by Josemaría Escrivá

Embrace esprit de corps, seek/find/love Christ, obedience falters if leader weakens, beware the devil's indirect attacks, Love one another & carry each other's troubles, just one evil to avoid on earth- sin.
