“Present evils are but means of purifying our soul, of grounding it in virtue, and occasions of acquiring merits, all in view of God's glory, the ultimate end of creation.”
Adolphe Tanquerey, The Spiritual Life: A Treatise On Ascetical And Mystical Theology

“[W]hat counts before God is the generous, oft-renewed effort despite apparent failures.”
Adolphe Tanquerey, The Spiritual Life: A Treatise On Ascetical And Mystical Theology

“Because God is holiness itself, we cannot be united to Him unless we are clean of heart--a state implying a twofold condition: atonement for the past and detachment from sin and the occasions of sin for the future.”
