If we seek God for our own good and profit, we are not seeking God.

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

The soul is created in a place between Time and Eternity: with its highest powers it touches Eternity, with its lower Time.

One person who has mastered life is better than a thousand persons who have mastered only the contents of books, but no one can get anything out of life without God.

The very best and noblest attainment in this life is to be silent and let God work and speak within. Therefore it is said: 'In the midst of silence the secret word was spoken to me'.

There is something in the soul that is so akin to God that it is one with Him... It has nothing in common with anything created.

That's all an angel is....an idea of God.
