Life is to life in such a way that we are not afraid to die.

Prayer is a friendly conversation with the One we know loves us.

There are more tears shed over answered prayers than over unanswered prayers.

Lord, how you afflict your lovers! But everything is small in comparison to what you give them afterwards.

I am afraid that if we begin to put our trust in human help, some of our Divine help will fail us.

People in the world pay little heed to reason where their own interests are involved.

If we do not use great care to mortify our will, there are many things which can deprives us of the holy freedom of spirit that we are seeking in order to fly more freely to our Creator, without always being bogged down with the clay of this earth. Moreover, there can never be solid virtue in a soul that is attached to its own will.
