Wisdom from St. John of the Cross

That thou mayest have pleasure in everything, seek pleasure in nothing.
That thou mayest know everything, seek to know nothing.
That thou mayes possess all things, seek to possess nothing.
That thou mayest be everything, seek to be nothing.

-St. John of the Cross, The Ascent of Mt. Carmel

That thou mayest possess all things . . .
That thou mayest possess all things . . .
