Above All, Clothe Yourselves With Love
At the close of life you will be examined as to your love: learn to love God as he wishes to be loved, and give up all that is your own.
SAINT JOHN OF THE CROSS Spiritual Maxims
True and False
Nothing should be held true merely because it is eloquently expressed, nor false because it sounds harsh upon the lips. And a thing is not true because rudely uttered, nor is it false because its utterance is splendid. I have learned from you that wisdom is like wholesome food and folly like unwholesome food: they can be set forth in language ornate or plain, just as both kinds of food can be served on rich dishes or on peasant ware.
