Let my soul live as if separated from my body.

Where there is no love, pour love in, and you will draw love out.

Live in faith and hope, though it be in darkness, for in this darkness God protects the soul. Cast your care upon God for you are His and He will not forget you. Do not think that He is leaving you alone, for that would be to wrong Him.

The soul of one who serves God always swims in joy, always keeps holiday, is always in her palace of jubilation, ever singing with fresh ardor and fresh pleasure a new song of joy and love.

The virtuous soul that is alone and without a master is like a long lone burning coal; it will grow colder rather than hotter.

Whoever does not seek the cross of Christ doesn't seek the glory of Christ.

Faith is the union of God and the soul.
