The most holy and important practice in the spiritual life is the presence of God - that is, every moment to take great pleasure that God is with you

I drove away from my mind everything capable of spoiling the sense of the presence of God.... I just make it my business to persevere in His holy presence... My soul has had an habitual, silent, secret conversation with God.

There's no greater lifestyle and no greater happiness than that of having a continual conversation with God.

Lord of all pots and pans and things make me a saint by getting meals and washing up the plates!

I began to live as if there were no one save God and me in the world.

Many things are possible for the person who has hope. Even more is possible for the person who has faith. And still more is possible for the person who knows how to love. But everything is possible for the person who practices all three virtues.

The greater perfection a soul aspires after, the more dependent it is upon Divine Grace.
