Remember that nothing is small in the eyes of God. Do all that you do with love.

The science of loving, yes, that's the only kind of science I want I'd barter away everything I possess to win it.

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.

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

He has created the poor savage with no guide but natural law, and it is to their hearts that He deigns to stoop. They are His wild flowers whose homeliness delights Him.

How happy I am to see myself as imperfect and to be in need of God's mercy.

We who run in the way of Love must never torment ourselves about anything. If I did not suffer minute by minute, it would be impossible for me to be patient; but I see only the present moment, I forget the past, and take good care not to anticipate the future. If we grow disheartened, if sometimes we despair, it is because we have been dwelling on the past or the future.
