Whoever is uprooted himself uproots others. Whoever is rooted himself doesn't uproot others.
We have to try to cure our faults by attention and not by will.
We must not wish for the disappearance of our troubles but for the grace to transform them.
Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.
Love: To feel with one's whole self the existence of another being.
prayer consists of attention. It is the orientation of all the attention of which the soul is capable towards God. The quality of the attention counts for much in the quality of the prayer. Warmth of heart cannot make up for it.
