Then do not let us try to charm them to sleep, but permit them to do their work
until divinely called to something higher.

—St. Teresa of Avila, Doctor of the Church

has done, so as to remember it afterwards. If I do remember it, I always see some other virtue in that person.
—St. Teresa of Avila, Doctor of the Church
Nothing is sweeter than to think well of others.
—St. Teresa of Lisieux, Doctor of the Church
Nothing great is ever achieved without much enduring.
