He who has a director, whom he obeys in everything, will reach his goal more easily and more quickly than if he acted as his own guide, even if he be very intelligent and have the very best of spiritual books”
- (St Vincent Ferrer Treatise on the Spiritual Life, 2, 1)

‎Our Lord Jesus Christ, without whom we can do nothing, will not give his grace to him who, though he has access to an expert guide, rejects this precious means of sanctification, thinking that he can look after on his own everything that touches on his salvation.

- ‎(St Vincent Ferrer Treatise on the Spiritual Life, 2, 1)

"To condescend to the humblest duties, and to devote oneself to the lowliest service is an exercise of humility: for thus one is able to heal the disease of pride and human glory."

- Decretal on Penance (D. II., cap. Si quis semel)
