"You alone know what is expedient for me; You are the sovereign master; do with me according to Your will. Give to me, or take away from me, only conform my will to Yours. I know but one thing, Lord, that is is good to follow You, and bad to offend You. Apart from that, I know not what is good or bad in anything. I know not which is most profitable to me, health or sickness, wealth or poverty, nor anything else in the world. That discernment is beyond the power of men or angels, and is hidden in the secrets of Your Providence, which I adore, but do not seek to fathom."
- A prayer by Blaise Pascal
