You, God, made yourself lowly and small to make us great!

There is no sin nor wrong that gives man such a foretaste of Hell in this life as anger and impatience.

You [God] are a fire that takes away the coldness, illuminates the mind with its light, and causes me to know your truth and I know that you are beauty and wisdom itself. The food of angels, you give yourself to man in this fire of your love

Out of darkness is born the light.

A soul cannot live without loving. It must have something to love, for it was created to love.

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

One who knows more, loves more.
