'Sigh after that happy country; leave your heart free to take its flight thither; above all, drink, with love, of your Saviour's chalice; inebriate yourself with it - and how? By pure love and pure suffering; unite the two, or, rather, cast a drop of your sufferings into the ocean of divine love.'

The "ocean of divine love" are words many Saints have used, most recently (that I know of) is St. Faustina.
