“You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you.”
“Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee.”
“Our hearts have been made for you, O God, and they shall never rest until they rest in you.”
“Woe to my proud soul, which hoped that if it fell away from you, it would have something better! It turned and turned again upon its back and sides and belly, but all places were hard to it, for you alone are rest.”
“If you believe what you like in the Gospel, and reject what you don't like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself.”
“Watch, O Lord,with those who wake,or watch or weep tonight,and give your angels chargeover those who sleep.Tend your sick ones,O Lord Jesus Christ;rest your weary ones;bless your dying ones;soothe your suffering ones;pity your afflicted ones;shield your joyous ones;and all for your love's sake.Amen.”
“For you [God] are infinite and never change. In you 'today' never comes to an end: and yet our 'today' does come to an end in you, because time, as well as everything else, exists in you. If it did not, it would have no means of passing. And since your years never come to an end, for you they are simply 'today'...But you yourself are eternally the same. In your 'today' you will make all that is to exist tomorrow and thereafter, and in your 'today' you have made all that existed yesterday and for ever before.”
