Virtue

Where there is charity and wisdom
  there is neither fear nor ignorance.

Where there is patience and humility
  there is neither anger nor disturbance.

Where there is poverty with joy
  there is neither greed nor avarice.

Where there is rest and meditation,
  there is neither anxiety nor restlessness.

Where there is fear of the Lord to guard an entrance,
  there the enemy cannot have a place to enter.

Where there is a heart full of mercy and discernment,
  there is neither excess nor hardness of heart.

-From Francis' Testament
