虔誠的人只需片刻就能提升至的德行境界，怠惰的花了許多年仍未能達到。

為天主的緣故表面上離開天主，不是靈魂收支結算表上的赤字而是巨大盈餘。

主啊，但願人能知禰的奧秘！ O God, if men only knew what thou art!

真正的修道者完全不受世俗及自身的束縛。 The true religious is he who is wholly free not only from the world but from himself as well.

你越與主結合，全心翕合至尊主旨，祂越寬容對待你。 The closer you bind yourself to God and the more wholeheartedly you give yourself up to his supreme majesty, the more liberal he will be to you.

愛德與仁慈，若不與真理結合，只是欺詐及虛榮。 Charity and kindness unwedded to truth are not charity and kindness, but deceit and vanity.

天主的良善習慣，是巧妙地保護受魔鬼猛烈攻擊的人。 It is God’s habit of his goodness to defend most skillfully what the devil attacks most bitterly.

天主的慷慨大方，偉大無比，從祂那裡，我獲得人沒法給予的： 他人無法給予，天主卻恩賜一切。

值得為主而做的事，都是驚天動地和鬼哭神號的. Nothing worthy of God can be done without earth being set in uproar and hell’s legions roused.

可確定靈修的進展，跟捨棄私愛及私益成正比。 You may be sure that the progress you make in spiritual things will be in proportion to the degree of your withdrawal from self-love and concern for your own welfare.

一個罕有及傑出的行動，遠勝平凡的千個。 One rare and exceptional deed is worth far more than a thousand commonplace ones.
