More quotes by Therese of Lisieux
Time is but a shadow, a dream already God sees us in glory and takes joy in our eternal beatitude. How this thought helps my soul! I understand then why He lets us suffer.
Therese of Lisieux
Go often to Holy Communion. Go very often! This is your one remedy.

If I am despised by the world, If it considers me as nothing, A divine peace flood me. For I have the Host as my support. When I draw near the ciborium, All my sighs are heard... To be nothing is my glory. I am the atom of Jesus.
Therese of Lisieux
Trying to do good to people without God's help is no easier than making the sun shine at midnight.

You mustn't coerce them into some path of your own choosing.
Therese of Lisieux

We must do everything we are obliged to do give without reckoning, practice virtue whenever opportunity offers, constantly overcome ourselves, prove our love by all the little acts of tenderness and consideration we can muster. In a word, we must produce all the good works that lie within our strength - out of love for God.
Therese of Lisieux
Let us rise above the things that pass away. Up above, the air is so pure. Jesus can hide Himself but we will find Him there.
Therese of Lisieux
If I did not simply live from one moment to another, it would be impossible for me to be patient, but I only look at the present, I forget the past, and I take good care not to forestall the future.
Therese of Lisieux
Jesus needs neither books nor Doctors of Divinity in order to instruct souls He, the Doctor of Doctors, He teaches without noise of words.
Therese of Lisieux
I am very far from practicing what I understand.
Therese of Lisieux
