Lord, no one can love something he cannot at all know;
Let us get to know you better
so than we can learn to love you completely.

 
Blessed Henry Suso, 14th century

Learn to think as Christ thought, learn to think with Him.
Such thought is not just of the mind, but also of the heart.
If we enter into His feelings, love for God is reawakened within us.
We feel how beautiful it is that He exists, and that we can know Him,
that we know Him.

 
His Holiness, Benedict XVI

Let us subject ourselves to God,
because from him is salvation.

 
St. Basil, 4th century

Those who devote all their thoughts
to the praise and service of the Lord
proclaim God's greatness.

 
Venerable Bede, 8th century

We hear people talk of wealth, honors and entertainment of all kinds;
let us remember that all things have an end.

 
St. Alphonsus Liguori, 18th century

The first end in our daily work is to do the will of God;
secondly, to do it in the manner he wills it;
and thirdly, to do it because it is his will.

 
St. Elizabeth Seton, 19th century

Love him totally,
who gave himself totally for your love.

 
St. Clare of Assisi, 13th century

In the measure you desire God you will find him.

 
St. Teresa of Avila, 16th century
