To Wish To Act Like Angels While

Out Of Suffering Comes The Serious Mind; Out Of Salvation, The Grateful Heart; Out Of Endurance, Fortitude; Out Of Deliverance Faith. Patient Endurance Attends To All Things.

From Heaven Even The Most Miserable Life Will Look Like One Bad Night At An Inconvenient Hotel.

To Reach Something Good It Is Very Useful To Have Gone Astray, And Thus Acquire Experience.

I Once Heard A Spiritual Man Say That He Was Not So Much Astonished At The Things Done By A Soul In Mortal Sin As At The Things Not Done By It. May God, In His Mercy, Deliver Us From Such Great Evil, For There Is Nothing In The Whole Of Our Lives That So Thoroughly Deserves To Be Called Evil As This, Since It Brings Endless And Eternal Evils In Its Train.

Oh, How Everything That Is Suffered With Love Is Healed Again!
