It is not the quantity that is read, but the manner of reading, that yields us profit.

– Francois Fenelon and Jeanne Guyon –
from Spiritual Progress
Peace of conscience, liberty of heart, the sweetness of abandoning ourselves in the hands of God, the joy of always seeing the light grow in our hearts, finally, freedom from the fears and insatiable desires of the times, multiply a hundredfold the happiness which the true children of God possess in the midst of their crosses, if they are faithful.
– Francois Fenelon –
in Christian Perfection
God never ceases to speak to us, but the noise of the world without and the tumult of our passions
within bewilder us and prevent us from listening to him.
– Fenelon –
