He who interrupts the course of his spiritual exercises and prayer is like a man who allows a bird to escape from his hand; he can hardly catch it again.

The window of the soul cleansed perfectly and made completely transparent by the divine light

Never relax, for you will not attain to the possession of true spiritual delights if first you do not learn to deny your every desire.

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

At the evening of life, we shall be judged on our love.

Seek in reading and you will find in meditation; knock in prayer and it will be opened to you in contemplation.

Not to follow the advice of our confessor is pride and a want of faith.
