It is said that in some countries trees will grow, but will bear no fruit because there is no winter there.

Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan.

The best prayers have often more groans than words.

In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.

If my life is fruitless, it doesn't matter who praises me, and if my life is fruitful, it doesn't matter who criticizes me.

You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.
