Let's ask God to help us to self-control for one who lacks it, lacks his grace.

At every moment, Love's voice talks to us from left and from right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.

When a man makes up a story for his child, he becomes a father and a child together, listening.

Your grief for what you've lost lifts a mirror up to where you're bravely working.

Its good to leave each day behind, like flowing water, free of sadness. Yesterday is gone and its tale told. Today new seeds are growing.

From cane reeds, sugar. From a worm's cocoon, silk. Be patient if you can, and from sour grapes will come something sweet.

Passion is present when a man can distinguish between the wine and the container. Two men see a loaf of bread. One hasn't eaten anything for ten days. The other has eaten five times a day, every day. He sees the shape of the loaf. The other man with his urgent need sees inside into the taste, and into the nourishment the bread could give. Be that hungry, to see within all beings the Friend.
