Jesus is the God whom we can approach without pride and before whom we can humble ourselves without despair.

It is the heart which perceives God and not the reason. That is what faith is: God perceived by the heart, not by the reason.

The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.

There are plenty of maxims in the world; all that remains is to apply them.

Justice is what is established; and thus all our established laws will necessarily be regarded as just without examination, since they are established.

That we must love one God only is a thing so evident that it does not require miracles to prove it.

Faith indeed tells what the senses do not tell, but not the contrary of what they see. It is above them and not contrary to them.
