If we knew how much He loves us, we should be always ready to receive equally and with indifference from His hand the sweet and the bitter; all would please that came from Him.

The world appears very little to a soul that contemplates the greatness of God.

To worship God in truth is to recognize Him for being who He is, and to recognize ourselves for what we are.

If the vessel of our soul is still tossed with winds and storms, let us awake the Lord, who reposes in it, and He will quickly calm the sea.

God always gave us light in our doubts, when we had no other design but to please Him.

That there needed neither art nor science for going to GOD, but only a heart resolutely determined to apply itself to nothing but Him, or for His sake, and to love Him only.

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