At the end of our life, we shall all be judged by charity.

In the twilight of life, God will not judge us on our earthly possessions and human success, but rather on how much we have loved.

Whenever anything disagreeable or displeasing happens to you, remember Christ crucified and be silent.

In the inner stillness where meditation leads, the Spirit secretly anoints the soul and heals our deepest wounds.

To love is to be transformed into what we love. To love God is therefore to be transformed into God.

Live in the world as if only God and your soul were in it; then your heart will never be made captive by any earthly thing.

Silence is God's first language.

Where there is no love, pour love in, and you will draw love out.

Whoever does not seek the cross of Christ doesn't seek the glory of Christ.

In sorrow and suffering, go straight to God with confidence, and you will be strengthened, enlightened and instructed.

God leads every soul by a separate path.

…the truest feeling of happiness is the security that comes with being loved.

Somewhere along the line, the crazy youth hostelers I kept seeing everywhere stopped looking so crazy.

Sometimes the boxes we’re put in fit. Other times, we find ourselves shoved into places too confining for our growing sense of self.

When you laugh – you surrender to the greatness of this moment.

I definitely like being in bands with other women because it's just, I don't know, it's just better.

Music used to cause revolutions and I'm not seeing much revolution anymore.

Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.

For me, art, and especially music, exist to elevate us as far as possible above everyday existence.

Young people need to be inspired, told they can achieve anything they set their minds to.

To find a young fellow that is neither a wit in his own eye, nor a fool in the eye of the world, is a very hard task.
