All I want is that we should know and abide with the Person with Whom we are speaking, and not turn our backs upon Him; for that, it seems to me, is what we are doing when we talk to God and yet think of all kinds of vanity. The whole mischief comes from our not really grasping the fact that He is near us, and imagining Him far away — so far, that we shall have to go to Heaven in order to find Him.
–Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
