God expects but one thing of you, and that is that you should come out of yourself in so far as you are a created being made and let God be God in you.

By humility, out of an enemy He has made a friend, which is more than to have created a new earth.

God cannot know himself without me.

I do not find God outside myself or conceive him except as my own and in me.

Nothing will be able to hinder us, if we desire and seek God alone, and take pleasure in nothing else.

God is not found in the soul by adding anything but by a process of subtraction.

Nothing is sharper than suffering, nothing is sweeter than to have suffered.
