God expects but one thing of you, and that is that you should come out of yourself in so far as you are a created being made and let God be God in you. – Meister Eckhart
The soul at its highest is found like God, but an angel gives a closer idea of Him. That is all an angel is: an idea of God. – Meister Eckhart
We are celebrating the feast of the Eternal Birth which God the Father has borne and never ceases to bear in all eternity… But if it takes not place in me, what avails it? Everything lies in this, that it should take place in me. – Meister Eckhart
A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we dont know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an oxs or bears, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there. – Meister Eckhart
