"The only thing to be feared [in obedience to spiritual directors] is that superiors may sometimes follow human prudence excessively, and that for want of discernment they may condemn the lights and inspirations of the Holy Ghost, treating them as illusions and reveries, and prescribe for those to whom God communicates Himself by such favors as if they were invalids." -- Fr. Louis Lallement, S.J., La Doctrine Spirituelle
