Big fires flare up in a wind, but little ones are blown out unless they are carried in under cover.

You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; and just so, you learn to love by loving. All those who think to learn in any other way deceive themselves.

Every moment comes to us pregnant with a command from God, only to pass on and plunge into eternity, there to remain forever what we have made of it.

I have made a pact with my tongue, not to speak when my heart is disturbed.

Hell is full of good intentions and wills.

By turning your eyes on God in meditation, your whole soul will be filled with God. Begin all your prayers in the presence of God.

I recommend to you holy simplicity.
