God Alone was the motto and the title of the collected writings of Saint Louis de Montfort, one of the leading figures in the French school of spirituality and Roman Catholic Mariology.[citation needed]

Montfort wrote "God Alone" on all his correspondences and at the end of most of his hymns.[1] The motto "God Alone" appears throughout his writings, almost as a refrain.[1]

The motto and the message of the book summed up Montfortian spirituality in the formula, "To God Alone, by Christ's Wisdom, in the Spirit, in communion with Mary, for the reign of God."
