What we plant in the soil of contemplation, we shall reap in the harvest of action.

Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us.

[W]e must come into a transformed knowing, an unknowing which comes not from ignorance but from knowledge.

People should not worry as much about what they do but rather about what they are. If they and their ways are good, then their deeds are radiant. If you are righteous, then what you do will also be righteous. We should not think that holiness is based on what we do but rather on what we are, for it is not our works which sanctify us but we who sanctify our works.

The seed of God is in us: Pear seeds grow into pear trees; Hazel seeds into hazel trees; And God seeds into God.

God is at home, it's we who have gone out for a walk.

Let God work in you, give the work to God, and have peace. Don't worry if He works through your nature or above your nature, because both are His, nature and grace.
