Nothing great is ever achieved without much enduring.

O abyss! O eternal Godhead! O deep sea! What more could you have given me than the gift of your very self?

O You who are mad about Your creature! true God and true Man, You have left Yourself wholly to us, as food, so that we will not fall through weariness during our pilgrimage in this life, but will be fortified by You, celestial nourishment

He will provide the way and the means, such as you could never have imagined. Leave it all to Him, let go of yourself, lose yourself on the Cross, and you will find yourself entirely.

A full belly does not make for a chaste spirit.

There is nothing we can desire or want that we do not find in God.

You are rewarded not according to your work or your time but according to the measure of your love.
