I do make conversion, if conversion means really turning people to God - to have a clean heart and to love God. That's the real conversion.

At the heart of silence is prayer. At the heart of prayer is faith. At the heart of faith is life. At the heart of life is service.

It's not about how much you do, but how much love you put into what you do that counts. Life isn't worth living, unless lived for other people.

To fear is to expect punishment. To love is to know we are immersed not in darkness, but in light.

In the poorest of the poor we see Jesus in distressed guise.

If you think well of others, you will also speak well of others and to others. From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. If your heart is full of love, you will speak of love.

Do not look for Jesus away from yourselves. He is not out there; He is in you. Keep your lamp burning, and you will recognize him.
