“If we really want to love others, we must first begin to love one another in our own home. Love begins at home, and so from here-from our own home-love will spread to my neighbor, in the street I live, in the town I live, in the whole world.”
― Mother Teresa, Love: The Words and Inspiration of Mother Teresa

“God is more intimate to me than I am to myself”
― St. Augustine

“Cosmic time as we know it, through all the immensity of its geological ages and historical epochs, is only a shadow of true time, and this world only a shadow of the fuller, richer, more substantial, more glorious creation that God intends; and [we are required] to believe also that all of nature is a shattered mirror of divine beauty, still full of light, but riven by darkness.”
― David Bentley Hart , The Doors of the Sea: Where Was God in the Tsunami?

“..Thou enter into my heart and fill it so compellingly that I shall turn no more to my sins but embrace thee, my only good?”
― St. Augustine, The Confessions
