"Truth suffers, but never dies." ~ Teresa of Avila"It is love alone that gives worth to all things." ~ Teresa of Avila"Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands, no feet but yours. Yours are the eyes with which Christ looks out his compassion to the world. Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good. Yours are the hands with which he is to bless us now." ~ Teresa of Avila"This body of ours has one fault: the more you indulge it, the more things it discovers to be essential to it. It is extraordinary how it likes being indulged." ~ Teresa of Avila"Christ does not force our will, He only takes what we give Him. But He does not give Himself entirely until He sees that we yield ourselves entirely to Him." ~ Teresa of Avila"Remember that you have only one soul; that you have only one death to die; that you have only one life. . . . If you do this, there will be many things about which you care nothing." ~ Teresa of Avila"Let us live in such a way as not to be afraid to die." ~ Teresa of Avila"What peace can we hope to find elsewhere if we have none within us." ~ Teresa of Avila"The closer one approaches to God, the simpler one becomes." ~ Teresa of Avila
"He who has God finds he is lacking nothing." ~ Teresa of Avila
