Spirituality is not to be learned by flight from the world, or by running away from things, or by turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, we must learn an inner solitude wherever or with whomsoever we may be. We must learn to penetrate things and find God there.

I have a capacity in my soul for taking in God entirely. I am as sure as I live that nothing is so near to me as God.

Love God, and do as you like, say the Free Spirits. Yes; but as long as you like anything contrary to God's will, you do not love Him.

Do not cling to the symbols, but get to the inner truth!

In my breaking through...I transcend all creatures and am neither God nor creature...for in this breaking through I find that God and I are both the same.

God cannot know himself without me.

Only those who have dared to let go can dare to re-enter.
