No man was ever lost except for one reason: having once left his ground he has let himself become too permanently settled abroad.

To be full of things is to be empty of God; to be empty of things is to be full of God.

In this breaking-through, I receive that God and I are one. Then I am what I was, and then I neither diminish nor increase, for I am then an immovable cause that moves all things.

As long as I am this or that, I am not all things.

The greatest power available to man is not to use it.

There is no stopping place in this life--nor is there ever one for any person, no matter how far along the way one's gone.

I maintain that all sorrow comes from love of those things of which loss deprives me.
