Teresa of Avila Quotes:
Ocupation: Saint
Life: March 28, 1515 - October 4, 1582
Birthday: March 28
Death: October 4
We know only that we are living in these bodies and have a vague idea, because we have heard it, and because our faith tells us so, that we possess souls. As to what good qualities there may be in our souls, or who dwells within them, or how precious they are, those are things which seldom consider and so we trouble little about carefully preserving the soul's beauty.
