QUOTATION: Self-Reflection

We can see neither our own dignity nor the defects which spoil the beauty of our soul, unless we look at ourselves in the peaceful sea of God’s being in which we are imaged.

--St. Catherine of Siena, Letter 226 to Blessed Raymond of Capua

QUOTATION: Focus on God

When we look at ourselves, we are saddened by our feelings; when we look at God, we rejoice in his love.

--St. Bernard of Clairvaux
