“Christ ascended up to heaven in the presence of his disciples, that they might be witnesses of this mystery, of which, they were beholders, none can give better testimony to Almighty God's deeds, than he who hath learned them by experience ; wherefore, he that would certainly know how good, how sweet, and merciful he is towards his, and what is the force and efficacy of his divine grace, love, providence, and spiritual consolations ; let him ask those, who, indeed, have had experience of them, for they, and only they, will give him the best instructions and satisfaction.”  - St. Peter of Alcantra
