Those in the highest state of religious experience desire nothing, except that God may be glorified in them by the accomplishment of His holy will.

–François Fénèlon (1651-1715)
To will everything that God wills, and to will it always, in all circumstances and without reservations: that is the kingdom of God which is entirely within.
–François Fénèlon (1651-1715)
Be patient in tribulation, watchful in prayer, strenuous in labors, modest in speech, grave in manners, and grateful for benefits, because for all these things God has prepared for you an eternal kingdom.
–Saint Francis of Assisi (1181 – 1226)
We should have no more use or regard for money in any of its forms than we have for dust. Those who think it is worth more, or who are greedy for it, expose themselves to the danger of being deceived by the Devil.
–Saint Francis of Assisi (1181–1226)
Hell is full of the talented, but Heaven, of the energetic.
–Saint Jane Frances de Chantal (1572-1641)
Perform faithfully what God requires of you each moment, and leave the thought of everything else to Him. I assure you that to live in this way will bring you great peace.
–Saint Jane Frances de Chantal (1572-1641)
