Who teaches the soul if not God?

Never give up prayer, and should you find dryness and difficulty, persevere in it for this very reason. God often desires to see what love your soul has, and love is not tried by ease and satisfaction.

Have a great love for those who contradict and fail to love you, for in this way love is begotten in a heart that has no love.

In the twilight of life, God will not judge us on our earthly possessions and human success, but rather on how much we have loved.

All the powers of soul and body,memory, understanding, and will, interior and exterior senses, thedesires of spirit and of sense, all workin and by love.

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

If it were given to a man to see virtue's reward in the next world, he would occupy his intellect, memory and will in nothing but good works, careless of danger or fatigue.
