Admonition 22

Blessed that religious who never says anything just for what he can get out of it. He should never be hasty in his words (Proverbs 29:20) or open his heart to everyone, but he should think hard before he speaks. Woe to that religious who does not keep the favours God has given him to himself; people should see them only through his good works, but he wants to tell everybody about them, hoping to get something out of it. In this way he has received his reward, and it does not do his listeners any good.

Saint Francis of Assisi
Admonition XXII
