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... it is not our works which sanctify us but we who sanctify our works.

God does not work in all hearts alike, but according to the preparation and sensitivity He finds in each.

If anyone went on for a thousand years asking of life: 'Why are you living?' life, if it could answer, would only say, 'I live so that I may live.' That is because life lives out of its own ground and springs from its own source, and so it lives without asking why it is itself living.

Between God and Me there is no 'Between'.

Every creature is a word of God.

There is no greater valor nor no sterner fight. He who would be what he ought to be must stop being what he is.

I tell you the truth, any object you have in your mind, however good, will be a barrier between you and the inmost Truth.
