Quote from Letter 9.15 Jovinus, an illustrious man from Catana. October 598
I rejoice in your quietness, just as much as I groan over my own occupations. And I strongly suggest to you that, if the sweetness of inner delight has touched the palate of your heart, your mind should be drawn inwards, so that all the fine sounds outside, all external delights, are bitter.
