"A soul which is pure and beautiful must pray, or else
it will lose its beauty; a soul which is striving after this
purity must pray, or else it will never attain it; a soul
which is newly converted must pray, or else it will fall
again; a sinful soul, plunged in sins, must pray so that
it might rise again. There is no soul which is not bound
to pray, for every single grace comes to the soul through
prayer", The Diary of Saint Faustina Kowalska, #146
