You tell me you do not have the time to give two or three hours to prayer; who asks you to do so?  No one can be excused for ejaculations because it can be made while coming and going about one's business.  Recommend yourself to God the first thing in the morning, protest that you do not wish to offend Him, and then go about your affairs, resolved, nevertheless, to raise your spirit to God, even amidst company.

--St. Francis de Sales
