Worship does not consist in prayers and in external devotion, but in a life of kindness.

Conscience is God's presence in humans.

The inner self is as distinct from the outer self as heaven is from earth.

He who assists a poor or needy villain does evil to his neighbor...for through the assistance which he renders he...supplies him with the means of doing evil to others.

Sacred scripture is like a mirror in which we see God, although each in a different way.

So far as the Angels are recipients of that spiritual heat and light they are loves and wisdoms, not loves and wisdoms for themselves, but from the Lord.

Kindness is an inner desire that makes us want to do good things even if we do not get anything in return. It is the joy of our life to do them. When we do good things from this inner desire, there is kindness in everything we think, say, want, and do.
