Holy simplicity is an unchanging will in the pursuit of a changeless good...Simplicity, in fact, is properly the will fundamentally turned toward God, asking of the Lord only one thing, seeking it with fervor, with no ambition to multiply itself by becoming dispersed in this world. Simplicity is also, in the conduct of life, the true humility which has the virtue of attaching more importance to the evidence of the conscience than to reputation."
- William of St. Thierry
(for the "one thing", read Psalm 84)
