Prayer for me is an updward leap of the heart

Above the clouds the sky is always blue.

I also understood that God's love shows itself just as well in the simplest soul which puts up no resistance to His grace as it does in the loftiest soul.

A word or a smile is often enough to put fresh life in a despondent soul.

(Whispered to a novice while standing in front of the convent library) Oh! I would have been sorry to have read all those books...If I had read them, I would have broken my head, and I would have wasted precious time that I could have employed very simply in loving God.

I felt it better to speak to God than about Him.

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