Silence does good to the soul.

I am simply content to find myself always imperfect, and in this I find my joy. Good deeds count as nothing, if done without love.

If you are willing to bear serenely the trial of being displeasing to yourself, then you will be for Jesus a pleasant place of shelter.

You cannot be half a saint; you must be a whole saint or no saint at all.

Without love, deeds, even the most brilliant, count as nothing.

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