O Jesus! on this day, you have fulfilled all my desires. From now on, near the Eucharist, I shall be able To sacrifice myself in silence, to wait for Heaven in peace.

Therese of Lisieux
Trials help us detach ourselves from the earth they make us look higher than this world.
Therese of Lisieux
I am very far from practicing what I understand.
Therese of Lisieux
By our little acts of charity practiced in the shade we convert souls far away, we help missionaries, we win for them abundant alms and by that means build actual dwellings spiritual and material for our Eucharistic Lord.
Therese of Lisieux
I prefer to be accused unjustly, for then I have nothing to reproach myself with, and joyfully offer this to the good Lord. Then I humble myself at the thought that I am indeed capable of doing the thing of which I have been accused.
Therese of Lisieux
I prefer the monotony of obscure sacrifice to all ecstasies. To pick up a pin for love can convert a soul.
