Francis De Sales Quotes

Good Feelings, When They Depart, Recommend To Us The Pursuit Of Virtue In Their Absence; Indeed It Is For Our Growth In Virtue That They Are Given To Us. The Bad Ones Suggest That When They Depart, Virtue Does Too, And They Leave Us Dispirited. In Brief, Good Feelings Do Not Call For Love, But Only For Us To Love The One Who Sends Them, While The Bad Ones Want Us To Love Them Above All Things. Good Feelings Impel Us To Seek Virtue; Bad Ones To Seek Feelings Themselves.
