I have learnt to love you late, Beauty at once so ancient and so new!

In doing what we ought we deserve no praise, because it is our duty.

Too late came I to love you, O Beauty both so ancient and so new! Too late came I to love you - and behold you were with me all the time . . .

Woman was merely man's helpmate, a function which pertains to her alone. She is not the image of God but as far as man is concerned, he is by himself the image of God.

Beauty grows in you to the extent that love grows, because charity itself is the soul's beauty.
