• I choose to live hidden all the days of my pilgrimage, behaving like a true pilgrim and empty-handed traveller, in order that I may in safety await the day of the Lord, being most rich, and at the same time very poor; most rich in seeking nothing, very poor in having nothing.
  • The Divine Soliloquies of Gerlac Petersen, Canon Regular of Deventer
