Religion is not a method, it is a life, a higher and supernatural life, mystical in its root and practical in its fruits; a communion with God, a calm and deep enthusiasm, a love which radiates, a force which acts, a happiness which overflows.

Without passion man is a mere latent force and possibility, like the flint which awaits the shock of the iron before it can give forth its spark.

Doubt of the reality of love ends by making us doubt everything.

To depersonalize man is the dominant drift of our times.

It is work which gives flavor to life.

Order is man's greatest need, and his true well-being.

Philosophy starts with doubt and loves only truth.
