A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.

--Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do… but how much love we put in that action.

My children, it is in loving the cross that we find true peace, not running from it.

Ah, let us stay quite far from all that shines; let us love our littleness.

The soul should move toward prayer the way a fish should move toward water; they are both a purely natural state.
