Therese of Lisieux
Why should we defend ourselves when we are misunderstood and misjudged? Let us leave that aside. Let us not say anything. It is so sweet to let others judge us in any way they like. O blessed silence, which gives so much peace to the soul!
Therese of Lisieux
As the sun shines both on the cedar and the smallest flower, so the Divine sun illumines each soul.
