Jean-Pierre de Caussade (1675-1751), Page: Quotes, Quote Author, Quote Topic, Spiritual (life)
So come! With heads erect, let us advance, ignoring everything, and remaining always satisfied with God and with all that he makes us do and accomplishes within us. Let us take good care not to get foolishly involved in all those fears and doubts which, like paths leading nowhere, only tempt us to wander on and on until we are hopelessly lost. Let us leap over this maze of self-love instead of trying to explore its endless alleys.
–Jean-Pierre de Caussade (1675-1751)
