Almost all those who have written concerning the devout life have had chiefly in view persons who have altogether quitted the world; or at any rate they have taught a manner of devotion which would lead to such total retirement. But my object is to teach those who are living in their own households, and whose calling obliges them to a social life, so far as externals are concerned. And so I have shown them that a true steadfast soul may live in the world untainted by worldly breath, finding a well-spring of holy piety amid the bitter waves of society, and hovering amid the flames of earthly lusts without singeing the wings of its devout life.

Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622) was a French Catholic bishop, theologian, preacher, and spiritual writer whose works became foundational texts of Christian devotional literature. Serving as Bishop of Geneva during the Counter-Reformation, Francis became renowned for his gentleness, wisdom, eloquence, and compassionate pastoral approach.His writings-including Introduction to the Devout Life and Treatise on the Love of God-emphasised practical spirituality, humility, patience, and the possibility of pursuing holiness within ordinary daily life. Canonised in 1665 and later declared a Doctor of the Church, Francis de Sales remains one of the most influential figures in Catholic spirituality and Christian devotional thought.
