Our soul can find in the Blessed Sacrament all the joys and consolations it desires.

You ought to make every effort to free yourselves even from venial sin, and to do what is most perfect.

God has no hands or feet or voice except ours and through these He works.

Alas, O Lord, to what a state dost Thou bring those who love Thee!

The custom of speaking to God Almighty as freely as with a slave - caring nothing whether the words are suitable or not, but simply saying the first thing that comes to mind from being learnt by rote by frequent repetition - cannot be called prayer: God grant that no Christian may address Him in this manner.

How is it that there are not many who are led by sermons to forsake open sin? Do you know what I think? That is because preachers have too much worldly wisdom.

O my God, what must a soul be like when it is in this state! It longs to be all one tongue with which to praise the Lord. It utters a thousand pious follies, in a continuous endeavor to please Him who thus possesses it.
