The diversity of language alienates man from man

Let us leave a little room for reflection in our lives, room too for silence. Let us look within ourselves and see whether there is some delightful hidden place inside where we can be free of noise and argument. Let us hear the Word of God in stillness and perhaps we will then come to understand it.

O Lord, help me to be pure, but not yet.

He who denies the existence of God, has some reason for wishing that God did not exist.

The way to Christ is first through humility, second through humility, and third through humility. If humility does not precede and accompany and follow every good work we do, if it is not before us to focus on, it it is not beside us to lean upon, if it is not behind us to fence us in, pride will wrench from our hand any good deed we do at the very moment we do it.

He who thinks he lives without sin puts aside not sin, but pardon.

It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.
