 12  Unic,   2     |         wherever I was, to please people, and so I became a great

 16  Unic,   6     |      realized that in my presence people could turn their backs to
 17  Unic,   6     |      kinds of devotion which some people practise -- especially women --
 18  Unic,   7     | wickedness I was one of the worst people alive, to live like everyone
 19  Unic,   7     |       leave -- such as talking to people through crevices or over
 20  Unic,   7     |         is very difficult to make people see this and the Lord must
 21  Unic,   7     |     occasions I got to know other people in the same way; and I spent
 22  Unic,   7     |          though I was, when I saw people who were fond of saying
 23  Unic,   7     |          the eyes of all, so that people invariably had a high opinion
 24  Unic,   7     |        many other benefits. Since people can find comfort in the
 25  Unic,   7     |         trials with others -- and people who practise prayer have
 26  Unic,   7     |         devotion in a place where people can see him, and by doing
 27  Unic,   7     |        happens so frequently that people now seem to glory in it
 28  Unic,   7     |        adding to them freely. For people trouble so little about
 29  Unic,   7     |         Him are to make progress. People think it a good thing to
 30  Unic,   7     |     speaking very frequently with people who practise prayer, I should
 31  Unic,   8     |         make myself pray at all. (People say that I have little courage,
 32  Unic,   8     |          am indeed sorry for such people, for they are serving God
 33  Unic,   8     |           to themselves. But when people practise prayer the Lord
 34  Unic,   9     |            as He has called a few people whom I know. It is a good
 35  Unic,   9     |          my imagination, as other people do, who can make pictures
 36  Unic,  10     |          I understand it, prevent people from making progress on
 37  Unic,  11     |           is hardly suitable that people who act in this way should
 38  Unic,  11     |        him to fear. No, spiritual people, there is no reason to be
 39  Unic,  11     |           as Thy love be given to people who serve Thee solely to

 41  Unic,  12     |       about it in such a way that people were astounded. And I myself
 42  Unic,  13     |          and free. There are some people who think that devotion
 43  Unic,  13     |        seems to me quite good for people who are in the married state
 44  Unic,  13     |          the mistakes I have seen people make because they trusted
 45  Unic,  13     |          many roads to them. Some people derive benefit from imagining
 46  Unic,  13     |       have said this because some people think that learned men,
 47  Unic,  13     |        truth of which we ignorant people know nothing.~
 48  Unic,  13     |           think that there may be people who have no desire to reap
 49  Unic,  16     |          I see and I wish all the people I see were suffering from
 50  Unic,  16     |        favour, for I see very few people who are not too worldly-wise
 51  Unic,  16(137)|          Valladolid by a group of people suspected of heresy, under
 52  Unic,  16     |       good too, but they lead few people to amend their lives. How
 53  Unic,  17     |           has granted it to a few people who are alive so that we
 54  Unic,  19     |           When this became known, people began to have a good opinion
 55  Unic,  19     |         for doing wrong. So these people were not to blame when they
 56  Unic,  19     |          only the nuns, but other people: they revealed things about
 57  Unic,  19     |         God, and so I should like people as ignorant as I am to know
 58  Unic,  19     |        intercourse with spiritual people. I fully believe that, unless
 59  Unic,  20     |      bought with this money which people desire? Is there anything
 60  Unic,  21     |          will always lead and the people will follow! For the sake
 61  Unic,  21     |           task presents itself to people who are as worthless as
 62  Unic,  21     |      others, is due to my finding people with these desires -- I
 63  Unic,  21     |          works" because there are people who think and proclaim themselves
 64  Unic,  21     |        laugh when it sees serious people -- men of prayer, leading
 65  Unic,  21     |   occasions of sin and being with people who were wont to distract
 66  Unic,  22     |           error was and tell many people of it, as I have done, and
 67  Unic,  22     |         advised by such spiritual people, but my belief is that it
 68  Unic,  22     |    distress which they cause some people who think that, if they
 69  Unic,  22     |           the matter than I. When people tell you that they are beginning
 70  Unic,  22     |          that He deals with other people, according to the way in
 71  Unic,  22     |          like food shared by many people; those who eat very little
 72  Unic,  22     |         the companionship of good people does not afford us such
 73  Unic,  22     |          seeking to prove who the people are that love Him -- whether
 74  Unic,  23     |           to make known among the people.184 I got to know him through
 75  Unic,  23     |           get to know and consult people as holy as those of the
 76  Unic,  23     |       none the less, as they were people whom I had consulted about
 77  Unic,  23     |         faithful and never allows people who love Him to be deluded
 78  Unic,  23     |           consulting such saintly people as those of the Company
 79  Unic,  23     |         to help a great number of people and perhaps to do other
 80  Unic,  24     |         firm friendship save with people who I believe love God and
 81  Unic,  24     |         made no difference if the people have been relatives or friends.
 82  Unic,  25     |      anyone who wishes to deceive people by saying that he has heard
 83  Unic,  25     |        excessive fears which some people have. This was particularly
 84  Unic,  25     |       meeting between a number of people in whom I had great confidence,
 85  Unic,  25     |         were five or six of these people, all of them great servants
 86  Unic,  25     |          sure I am more afraid of people who are themselves terrified
 87  Unic,  25     |         are confessors, can upset people a great deal, and for several
 88  Unic,  27     |          of which time both other people and myself were continually
 89  Unic,  27     |   forbidden to stop his ears when people near him are talking in
 90  Unic,  27     |       perfection. It is said that people's health is feebler nowadays
 91  Unic,  27     |        repeated it to a number of people and in a week came the news
 92  Unic,  27     |           practice. I see so many people in the world going to perdition
 93  Unic,  28     |                I once said to the people who were talking to me in
 94  Unic,  28     |           had happened with other people. All this worried me. I
 95  Unic,  28     |           for he had to deal with people who did not believe him
 96  Unic,  28     |          my words seemed to these people lacking in humility. When
 97  Unic,  28     |     though the opposition of good people to a weak and wicked woman
 98  Unic,  29     |  confessions or when I heard that people were saying things to them
 99  Unic,  29     |        even when I was with other people, I could not resist them;
100  Unic,  30     |        but believe that what most people said was of the devil was
101  Unic,  30     |            the opposition of good people -- was one of the severest
102  Unic,  30     |           on what would happen if people who think of me as good
103  Unic,  30     |           me as He does many good people, I have not yet begun to
104  Unic,  31     |          are extremely useful for people to know if they are walking
105  Unic,  31     |          voices near me as though people were discussing something.
106  Unic,  31     |         to me; and there are many people who will bear witness to
107  Unic,  31     |        and that I would get other people better than myself to do
108  Unic,  31     |         so much of, especially by people of importance, and so much
109  Unic,  31     |        two things could happen -- people would either speak ill of
110  Unic,  31     |         troubled at hearing other people praised but rather rejoiced
111  Unic,  31     |        refusal to allow that good people can ever do wrong and the
112  Unic,  31     |           things as not caring if people speak ill of us, but being
113  Unic,  31     |          harm it does. I see some people whose actions are very holy
114  Unic,  32     |           things taught me by the people I met and these did them
115  Unic,  32     |         few words to describe it: people talked about us, laughed
116  Unic,  32     |     certain point I thought these people were right. Worn out with
117  Unic,  32     |          at that time, both among people of prayer and in the whole
118  Unic,  32     |         more faith; and, whatever people might say to her, nothing
119  Unic,  32     |           that position, and many people were continually helping
120  Unic,  33     |          remained unaccomplished, people became still more certain
121  Unic,  33     |          desire trials. The other people thought I was very much
122  Unic,  33     | revelation about this matter, and people came to me in great concern
123  Unic,  33     |        Lord, in ways which amazed people when they heard of them,
124  Unic,  34     |           secretly but that a few people heard of it: of these, some
125  Unic,  34     |        the Lord had ordained that people should speak well to her
126  Unic,  34     |       fail and must not listen to people's opinions, as there were
127  Unic,  34     |          been offered by the good people whom I knew. She was a most
128  Unic,  34     |       with it. And I learned that people of rank have to be careful
129  Unic,  34     |           few humbler and simpler people than this woman. I was sorry
130  Unic,  34     |       gain little himself and the people who have to do with him
131  Unic,  34     |          He was very pleased when people found their delight in talking
132  Unic,  34     |            repeated them to other people, who know that I am not
133  Unic,  35     |         Distraction does not make people richer and God never fails
134  Unic,  35     |          opinions of a great many people with regard to all this
135  Unic,  35     |          found that I was leaving people who so much regretted losing
136  Unic,  35     |         understand why it is that people are afraid to set out upon
137  Unic,  35     |                                   People are not afraid to walk among
138  Unic,  36     |           he was so much drawn to people whom he saw determined to
139  Unic,  36     |            as appeared later, the people were opposed to the plan.
140  Unic,  36     |     discovered, and, though a few people must have been rather suspicious,
141  Unic,  36     |        The devil also asked me if people living under so strict a
142  Unic,  36     |       give up so many friends for people in this other convent who
143  Unic,  36     |         all this intercourse with people had worn me to pieces.~
144  Unic,  36     |          by the report which many people had given him of my delinquency.
145  Unic,  36     |        should be scandalizing the people, they said, and setting
146  Unic,  36     |         God, made me, and all the people who were helping the project,
147  Unic,  36     |        commotion in the city that people talked about nothing else.
148  Unic,  36     |         as it did to see that the people who were helping me were
149  Unic,  36     |    started to say the Office, the people began to be very much devoted
150  Unic,  36     |          Lord started to move the people who had persecuted us most
151  Unic,  36     |          money, the Lord inspires people to send it. We get on very
152  Unic,  36     |       asking the opinions of many people, I have decided that that
153  Unic,  36     |          be borne quite easily by people who are not in the least
154  Unic,  37     |          be sure they will not be people who trample the world underfoot;
155  Unic,  37     |          the world underfoot; for people who do that speak the truth,
156  Unic,  37     |          my business and mix with people of every kind -- and all
157  Unic,  37     |        careless and omit to treat people much better than they deserve
158  Unic,  37     |      careless, we have to satisfy people that our intentions were
159  Unic,  37     |            my attempts to satisfy people were never-ending, for,
160  Unic,  37     |        really sorry for spiritual people who for certain pious reasons
161  Unic,  38     |   thinking what a pity it is that people esteem such things, remembering
162  Unic,  38     |           it seems to me, are the people who are really alive, while
163  Unic,  38     |          virtuous than upon other people, and what a terrible thing
164  Unic,  38     |           death, although I found people greatly distressed by it,
165  Unic,  38     |           not cease trying to get people to commend him to God and
166  Unic,  39     |          been observed by so many people that it causes me no distress
167  Unic,  39     |          observed, and in so many people, that I am amazed to find
168  Unic,  39     |       here is not the years which people have spent in prayer but
169  Unic,  39     |           that has no money, like people who make no account of their
170  Unic,  39     |         multitude of all kinds of people that I was completely surrounded
171  Unic,  39     |       longer feared all the other people, who, try as they might,
172  Unic,  39     |         amazes me most, very good people. By all these I found myself
173  Unic,  39     |          a warning it would be to people that they should hate everything
174  Unic,  39     |           I saw twice. When other people were communicating I did
175  Unic,  40     |          who love Me in truth! If people loved Me, I should not hide
176  Unic,  40     |         know this happens to some people. I should think it a good
177  Unic,  40     |          a great field where many people were fighting and the members
178  Unic,  40     |         happy when I was with the people to whom I speak about my
179  Unic,  40     |          continued, but for these people? The conversation of good
180  Unic,  40     |          The conversation of good people never did any harm, and
181  Unic,  40     |           me how I must deal with people who were weak and with certain
182  Unic,  40     |           to my confessors and to people to whom I have known that
183  Unic,  40     |           zeal for righteousness, people may speak very ill of me,
184  Unic,  40     |        like, as there are certain people to whom I am obliged to
185  Unic,  40     |         and care very little what people say or what is known about
186  Unic,  40     |           for all the things that people may say about me; for, since
