How to Start your day like St. Francis de Sales from Introduction to the Devout Life, Chapter 10 of Part 2.
1. Thank God for the new day...
2. Call to mind how you are to work towards eternity this day...
3. Consider all the day and how to serve God throughout...
4. Humble yourself and present all your weaknesses to God, and beg for His strength for the day.
5. Do this all immediately upon waking.
The quote from The Brothers Karamazov is
"I want to live for immortality, and I will accept no compromise."
