God enlarges the heart by sending spiritual water from a source deep within us. It is like smelling something cooking on a distant grill. The spiritual joy is not something we can obtain with our own efforts. We can only receive it as a gift.
--St. Teresa of Avila, Interior Castle
I should like a great lake of beer for the King of Kings. I should like the angels of Heaven to be drinking it through time eternal.
--St. Brigid
