Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to do the humble work.

I love all religions, but I am in love with my own.

Death is nothing else but going home to God, the bond of love will be unbroken for all eternity.

Love to be real, it must cost—it must hurt—it must empty us of self.

In reality, there is only one true prayer, only one substantial prayer: Christ himself. There is only one voice which rises above the face of the earth, the voice of Christ. Prayer is oneness with Christ.

We need silence to be alone with God, to speak to him, to listen to him, to ponder his words deep in our hearts. We need to be alone with God in silence to be renewed and transformed. Silence gives us a new outlook on life. In it we are filled with the energy of God himself that makes us do all things with joy.

We realize that what we are accomplishing is a drop in the ocean. But if this drop were not in the ocean, it would be missed.
