Meditation on Jesus Christ crucified is a precious balm which sweetens all pains.

If you correspond to the designs of God, He will make a saint of you.

I tell you that victory consists in conquering self. That is the greatest enemy.

Do you know why God subjects you to so many miseries? That He may bestow on you the riches of heaven.

Entrust yourself entirely to God. He is a Father and a most loving Father at that, who would rather let heaven and earth collapse than abandon anyone who trusted in him.

When you feel the assaults of passion and anger, then is the time to be silent as Jesus was silent in the midst of His ignominies and sufferings.

Avoid failing, not only against purity, but even against the least rules of an exact modesty.
