A Christian should be an Alleluia from head to foot

Fortitude is the disposition of soul which enables us to despise all inconveniences and the loss of things not in our power.

Choose to love whomsoever thou wilt: all else will follow.

I became evil for no reason. I had no motive for my wickedness except wickedness itself. It was foul, and I loved it. I loved the self-destruction, I loved my fall, not the object for which I had fallen but my fall itself. My depraved soul leaped down from your firmament to ruin. I was seeking not to gain anything by shameful means, but shame for its own sake.

Lust indulged became habit, and habit unresisted became necessity.

Fill yourselves first and then only will you be able to give to others.
