Currently my favorite prayer:

By: St. Thomas Aquinas

Creator of all things,
true source of light and wisdom,
lofty origin of all being,
graciously let a ray of your brilliance
penetrate into the darkness
of my understanding
and take from me the double darkness
in which I have been born,
an obscurity of both sin and ignorance.
Give me a sharp sense of understanding,
a retentive memory,
and the ability to grasp things
correctly and fundamentally.
Grant me the talent of being exact
in my explanations,
and the ability to express myself
with thoroughness and charm.
Point out the beginning,
direct the progress,
and help in the completion,
through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
