If any soul yearns for the transcendent charity of Christ, then her first need is to have this law written in the very center of the heart, for this is the straight and royal road that leads to that royal eminence. In fact, if your heart is agitated with even the smallest dispute over some injury, whether you are enduring it yourself or making another endure it, then there is no room for prayer. No, a cloud presents itself, and let's nothing pass through it. But, on the other hand if you listen carefully, a voice sounds from the cloud: ‘ Make peace with your brother or sister’, and forgive whatever you have against them.
JOHN OF FORDE Sermon 91
