We can be a danger to ourselves, yet others can harm us. Yet if we lash out with hatred or violence, if we make war on ourselves or each other, we generate more fear, reactivity and suffering. Freeing ourselves from this trance of fear and alienation becomes possible only as we respond to our vulnerability with a wise heart.

- Tara Brach

God gave us faculties for our use; each of them will receive its proper reward.
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

I do not fear Satan half so much as I fear those who fear him.
—St. Teresa of Avila, Doctor of the Church

Pain is never permanent.
—St. Teresa of Avila, Doctor of the Church

God has been very good to me, for I never dwell upon anything wrong which a person
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.
