"O faint of heart, take courage and do not despair. You are afraid, you are sad, you are stricken with weariness and dread of the torment with which you have been cruelly threatened. Trust me. I conquered the world, and yet I suffered immeasurably more from fear, I was sadder, more afflicted with weariness, more horrified at the prospect of such cruel suffering . . . Follow my leadership; if you do not trust yourself, place your trust in me. See, I am walking ahead of you along this fearful road."
From On the Sadness of Christ by Sir Thomas More (quoted in A Daughter's Love: Thomas More & His Dearest Meg by John Guy)
