"I believe no happiness can be found worthy to be compared with that of a soul in Purgatory except that of the saints in Paradise; and day by day this happiness grows as God flows into these souls, more and more as the hindrance to His entrance is consumed."

Catherine of Genoa (1447-1510)
Catholic saint, mystic and nurse

Treatise on Purgatory (1551)
Chapter II
