The conditions of a solitary bird are five: The first, that it flies to the highest point; The Second, that it does not suffer for company, not even of its own kind; The Third, that it aims its beak to the skies; The Fourth, that it does not have a definite color; The Fifth, that it sings very softly.

Desolation is a file, and the endurance of darkness is preparation for great light.

At the end of our life, we shall all be judged by charity.

Who teaches the soul if not God?

The soul that walks in love neither tires others nor grows tired.

They say, "God told me", or "God replied to me". And yet most of the time they are talking to themselves.

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