Everything depends on this: a fathomless sinking into a fathomless nothingness.

Every one should find some suitable time, day or night, to sink into his depths, each according to his own fashion. Not every one is able to engage in contemplative prayer.

In the school of the spirit, man learns wisdom through humility.

In prayerful silence you must look into your own heart. No one can tell you better than yourself what comes between you and God. Ask yourself. Then listen!

If we really want to achieve true prayer, we must turn our backs upon everything temporal, everything external, everything that is not divine.

If you fall seventy times a day, rise seventy times and return to God so that you will not fall too often.
