You must grow like a tree, not like a mushroom

Egypt is full of dreams, mysteries, memories.

Our spiritual life is a venture in the dark, between the soul and God, and no spiritual life is worth the name unless it is so.

Isn't it wonderful that two of the most sacred and symbolic plants, the olive and the vine, live on almost nothing, a terrace of limestone, sun and rain.

Every friendship with God and every love between Him and a soul is the only one of its kind.

To aim at the best and to remain essentially ourselves is one and the same thing.

This world is not the sum total of God's resources -- on the contrary, it is only the 'dream,' the probation, the prelude of the true world, the true life.
