Quotes

"A truly contemplative man is set towards the invisible light with such great desire that by men he is often deemed a fool or insane; and that is because his mind is deeply inflamed with the love of Christ, his bodily bearing changes outwardly, and his body also departing from all earthly works, it makes the child of God look like a man out of his mind."

"The warmer a man waxes with the heat of everlasting light the more meek shall he be in all adversities. He also that is truly meek, not feigning, holds himself worthy to be despised, and is not provoked to wrath either by injury or reproof."
