One short saying per day. Every day of the year. There are progressing themes through the book, with a lot of immediately applicable stuff for your life. Very direct and to the point.

Apparently Saint Philip was a fan of the Desert Fathers, and this is rather reminiscent of them at times. Same thing of super concentrated wisdom in these aphorisms.

There are a few real gems in here and it gives a good thought to frame each day within.

This is a series of maxims from St. Philip Neri. Short, pithy, and edifying remarks on how to be holy and thrive in the spiritual life.
