- “some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith. I don’t agree at all. They are afflictions, not sins”
- Every moment in the Passion speaks to some common element in the sufferings of our race
- “we can bear to be refused but not to be ignored”

“a concentrated mind and a sitting body make for a better prayer than a kneeling body and a mind half asleep”
“We should lay before Him what is in us, not what ought to be in us”
Consistent prayer of “petty things” builds a healthy habit
