Anyone who truly loves God travels securely.

Oh, how everything that is suffered with love is healed again!

The best thing must be to flee from all to the All.

It is a most certain truth, that the richer we see ourselves to be, confessing at the same time our poverty, the greater will be our progress, and the more real our humility.

I was living an extremely burdensome life, because every time I prayed, I became more clearly aware of my faults. On the one hand, God was calling me. On the other, I was following the way of the world. Doing what God wanted made me happy; but I felt bound by the things of this world.

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

Oh, my Lord! How true it is that whoever works for you is paid in troubles! And what a precious price to those who love you if we understand its value.
