Christian joy is a gift of God flowing from a good conscience.
A joyful heart is more easily made perfect than a downcast one.
As soon as we are stripped of the sordid garb of avarice, we shall be clothed with the royal and imperial vest of the opposite virtue, liberality.
The stench of impurity before God and the angels is so great, that no stench in the world can equal it.
Where there is no great mortification there is no great sanctity.
The great thing is to become Saints.
