“THERE is nothing in the world so real and substantial as the love of God. One act of Divine Love is a more finished thing than a statue [of a Greek god.] It is more firm than the foundations of the Alps. It is more enduring than the round world which God hath made so strong. All things are bubbles to it. They have nothing in them. They mean little. They soon pass away. An act of love is a complete work, and has greater power and greater consequence than any other act. The mere act of dying is not equal to it. And yet this act of love can be made by a mental glance, quick as lightening, and piercing heaven.”

— Fr. Frederick William Faber, All for Jesus, or the Easy Ways of Divine Love (1854)
