Therese of Lisieux
Never stop wanting for your magic
Therese of Lisieux
the more one advances, the more one sees the goal is still far off. And now I am simply resigned to see myself always imperfect and in this I find my joy.
Therese of Lisieux

Therese of Lisieux
In Heaven the good God will do all I wish, because I have never done my own will upon earth.
Therese of Lisieux
Love is a universe of its own, comprising all time and space.
