“Perfection
does not consist of ecstasies, but in doing God's will.... Now who is
the most perfect person? The one whose will is conformed to the will
of God. So perfection consists in so uniting our will to God's that
His will and ours become one. The one who excels in this point is the
most perfect.” (17 October 1655; SV XI, 317-318)
