Magdeleine HutinAre you fully aware that despite the outer appearances of leading an apostolic life, you must be a true contemplative?  Your contemplative life will have to be all the more luminous and fruitful, precisely because you have chosen to be plunged in the activity of everyday life like leaven in the dough.
Little Sister Magdeleine (1898–1989)
