Quotes from Clare of Assisi

Our body is not made of iron. Our strength is not that of stone. Live and hope in the Lord, and let your service be according to reason.

We become what we love and who we love shapes what we become.

Love God, serve God; everything is in that.

Love that does not know of suffering is not worthy of the name.

O blessed poverty, who bestows eternal riches on those who love and embrace her!

Place your mind before the mirror of eternity! Place your soul in the brilliance of glory! And transform your entire being into the image of the Godhead Itself through contemplation.
