Everything that the obedient man does is a source of merit to him. If he eats, obedience is his food; if he sleeps, his dreams are obedience; if he walks, if he remains still, if he fasts, if he watches: everything that he does is obedience; if he serve his neighbour, it is obedience that he serves.
Saint Catherine of Siena
