“God is closer to us than water is to a fish.”

What father ever gave up his son to death for the sake of his slave!

There is no sin nor wrong that gives man such a foretaste of Hell in this life as anger and impatience.

He will provide the way and the means, such as you could never have imagined. Leave it all to Him, let go of yourself, lose yourself on the Cross, and you will find yourself entirely.

Perfection does not consist in macerating or killing the body, but in killing our perverse self-will.

It is impossible to fulfill the law concerning love for Me, God eternal, apart from the law concerning love for your neighbors.

Charity is the sweet and holy bond which links the soul with its Creator: it binds God with man and man with God.

The soul is in God and God in the soul, just as the fish is in the sea and the sea in the fish.

To a brave man, good and bad luck are like his left and right hand. He uses both.

Ponder the fact that God has made you a gardener, to root out vice and plant virtue.

There is nothing we can desire or want that we do not find in God.

Everything comes from love, all is ordained for the salvation of man, God does nothing without this goal in mind.

Whoever loves himself or the world inordinately becomes incompatible with himself.

What is it you want to change? Your hair, your face, your body? Why? For God is in love with all those things and he might weep when they are gone.

The devil fears hearts on fire with love of God.

A soul cannot live without loving. It must have something to love, for it was created to love.

The strongest and purest love is not the one that starts from impressions, but the one that comes from admiration.

Mouths open and very close catching sounds inside our throats.

I’ll let you grab my hips any day of the week, if only you promise to pull me close and whisper that I’m the best view you’ve ever seen.

Tonight skin on skin is not close enough. I want to feel you deep within.

I do not fear death. But I do, a deathbed regret. Life is a blink of an eye. One day forever closed, lest you forget.

Don’t just sit there looking at me. Come closer my love. Tonight I want you under my sheets.

Pay close attention to those who don’t clap when you win.

I loved you as Icarus loved the sun- too close, too much.

I want a love that shouts from the rooftops holds me close in bed, wants to show me off and will forever hold my hand.
