And when he is out of sight, quickly also is he out of mind.
      - Imitation of Christ (bk. I, ch. XXIII)
        [Memory]

But when he (man) shall have been taken from sight, he quickly goes also out of mind.
  [Lat., Cum autem sublatus fuerit ab oculis, etiam cito transit a mente.]
      - Imitation of Christ (bk. I, ch. XXIII, 1)
        [Absence]

All His glory and beauty come from within, and there He delights to dwell, His visits there are frequent, His conversation sweet, His comforts refreshing; and His peace passing all understanding.
      - Imitation of Christ (bk. II, ch. I),
        (Dibdin's translation) [Christ]

A lover of Jesus and of the truth . . . can lift himself above himself in spirit.
  [Lat., Amator Jesu et veritatis . . . potest se . . . elevare supra seipsum in spiritu.]
      - Imitation of Christ (II, 1) [Growth]
