Lao Tzu
“If you correct your mind, the rest of your life will fall into place.”
Laozi

Brother Lawrence
“We ought not to be weary of doing little things for the love of God, who regards not the greatness of the work, but the love with which it is performed.”
Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God

Augustine of Hippo
“We speak, but it is God who teaches.”
Saint Augustine of Hippo

Teresa de Ávila
“Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things.
Whoever has God lacks nothing;
God alone suffices.”
Santa Teresa de Jesús

Lao Tzu
“Love

Embracing Tao, you become embraced.
Supple, breathing gently, you become reborn.
Clearing your vision, you become clear.
Nurturing your beloved, you become impartial.
Opening your heart, you become accepted.
Accepting the World, you embrace Tao.
Bearing and nurturing,
Creating but not owning,
Giving without demanding,
Controlling without authority,
This is love.”
Laozi, The Teachings of Lao-Tzu: The Tao-Te Ching
