Let us go forward in peace, our eyes upon heaven, the only one goal of our labors.

Silence does good to the soul.

What a joy to remember that she is our Mother! Since she loves us and knows our weakness, what have we to fear?

God would never inspire me with desires which cannot be realized; so in spite of my littleness, I can hope to be a saint.

True charity consists in putting up with all one's neighbors fault's; never being surprised by his weakness, and being inspired by the least of his virtues.

Love is nourished only by sacrifices, and the more a soul refuses natural satisfactions, the stronger and more disinterested becomes her tenderness.

A heart given to God loses none of its natural tenderness; on the contrary, the more pure and divine it becomes, the more such tenderness increases.
