Some that I like are...





At times God comes into the soul without being called; and He instills into her fire, love, and sometimes sweetness; and the soul believes this coming from God, and delights there in. But she does not yet know or see that He dwells in her; she perceives His grace, in which she delights�Beyond this the soul receives the gift of seeing God. God says to her, �Behold Me!� and the soul sees Him dwelling within her. She sees Him more clearly than one man sees another. For the eyes of the soul behold a plenitude of which I cannot speak, a plenitude which is not bodily, but spiritual, of which I can say nothing.�

--Angela of Foligno (1248-1309), Italian mystic, Ibid., p. 282

Just as it is impossible to separate one�s image from a mirror and touch it at the same time, it is still more difficult to succeed in committing to writing these heavenly secrets.

The safest path is the path of duty.

"I wasn't put on this earth to be no slave to no woman." Evel Kneivel in response to why he cheats on and abuses his wife so many times.

No wisedom in that one whatsoever. It's just one that is stuck in my head because it's funny because of how rabidly extreme and backwards it is.

You do not need to be LOVED,not at the cost of yourself.The single

relationship that is truly CENTRAL and CRUCIAL in a life is the relationship to the SELF. Of all the people you will know in a lifetime,You are the only one you will never lose...
