I will be silent and will hear what God will say in me...If God wishes to speak to me, let him enter. I will not go out.

Theologians may quarrel, but the mystics of the world speak the same language.

Existence itself stands in need of nothing, for it lacks nothing, whereas everything else needs it, because outside of it there is nothing. Nothingness stands in need of existence, as a sick man lacks health and is in need. Health has no need of a sick man. To want nothing, therefore, characterizes the highest perfection, is fullest and purest existence.

He is conscious only of God...To be conscious of knowing God is to know about God and self.

Nobody at any time is cut off from God.

Do not think that saintliness comes from occupation; it depends rather on what one is. The kind of work we do does not make us holy, but we may make it holy.

People should not worry so much about what they do but rather about what they are.
