Love watches, and sleeping, slumbers not. When fatigued it does not become tired; when pressed it does not work through constraint; when threatened it is not disturbed; but like a lively flame and a burning torch, it mounts upwards, and securely overcomes all opposition.
He who knows how to suffer will enjoy much peace, and he is a conqueror of himself, the lord of the world, the friend of Christ, and an heir of Heaven.
Ask, and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
Grant me, O God, strength and courage to restrain the desires of my heart, that I may be free to possess you, Amen.
Love is a great thing, greatest of all goods, because it alone renders light every burden and bears equally all that is unequal.
