The devil knows he has lost a soul who perseveringly practices mental prayer... He who neglects mental prayer needs not a devil to carry him to hell, but he brings himself there with his own hands.

-ST. TERESA OF ÁVILA

In mental prayer, the soul is purified from its sins, nourished with charity, confirmed in faith, and strengthened in hope; temptation is conquered, sadness dispelled; drooping powers revive... inflamed with the fire of divine love.

-ST. peter of alcantara

Mental prayer is morally necessary for salvation... All saints became such through mental prayer.

-ST. alphonsus ligouri
