Patience is power. Patience is not an absence of action; rather it is "timing" it waits on the right time to act, for the right principles and in the right way.

Fasting detaches you from this world. Prayer reattaches you to the next world.

Each of us makes his own weather, determines the color of the skies in the emotional universe which he inhabits.

If we had intellectual vigour enough to ascend from effects to causes, we would explain political, economical and social phenomena less by credit sheets, balance of trade and reparations than by our attitude towards God.

Sex divorced from love, instead of raising man by taking him away from himself, drags him down to the hall of mirrors where he is always confronted with self. Sex does not care about the person, but about the act. The fig leaf which once was put over the secret parts of man and woman in sculpture is now put over the face. The person does not matter.

In vocal prayer we go to God on foot. In meditation we go to God on horseback. In contemplation we go to God in a jet.
