Love seeks one thing only: the good of the one loved. It leaves all the other secondary effects to take care of themselves. Love, therefore, is its own reward.

Be good, keep your feet dry, your eyes open, your heart at peace and your soul in the joy of Christ.

Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony.

When ambition ends, happiness begins.
