Saint Maximilian Kolbe Quote

No one in the world can change Truth. What we can do and should do is to seek truth and to serve it when we have found it. The real conflict is the inner conflict. Beyond armies of occupation and the hecatombs of extermination camps, there are two irreconcilable enemies in the depth of every soul: good and evil, sin and love. And what use are the victories on the battlefield if we ourselves are defeated in our innermost personal selves?

-- Saint Maximilian Kolbe

Saint Vincent Pallotti Quote

What has a person to fear who lives in the arms and bosom of God?

-- Saint Paul of the Cross

Saint John Mary Vianney Quote

...How often we come to church with no idea of what to do or what to ask for. And yet, whenever we go to any human being, we know well enough why we go. And still worse, there are some who seem to speak to the good God like this: "I will only say a couple of things to you, and then I will be rid of you." I often think that when we come to adore the Lord, we would receive everything we ask for, if we would ask with living faith and with a pure heart.”

-- Saint John Mary Vianney from his catechetical instructions

Saint John Bosco Quote

It is important that you choose your career with care, so that you may really follow the vocation that God has destined for you. No day should pass without some prayer to this end. Often repeat with St. Paul: "Lord, what will you have me do?"

-- Saint John Bosco

Saint Peter Julian Eymard Quote

My God, do Thou strengthen and increase my faith in Thy divinity that I may adore it, and love it, and confess it even at the peril of my own life; let me be only too happy if I should be called to shed my blood in defense of it.

-- Saint Peter Julian Eymard

Saint Ignatius of Loyola Quote

I wish not merely to be called Christian, but also to be Christian.

-- Saint Ignatius of Loyola

Saint John Vianney Quote

When we must do something we dislike, let us say to God, " My God I offer You this in honor of the moment when You died for me."

-- Saint John Vianney

Saint Lawrence of Brindisi Quote

Christ is the first-born of every creature, and the whole of humanity as well as the created world finds its foundation and meaning in Him. Moreover, this would have been the case even if Adam had not sinned.

-- Saint Lawrence of Brindisi

Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman Quote

Reason can but ascertain the profound difficulties of our condition, it cannot remove them.

-- Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman

Saint John Plessington Quote

But I know it will be said that a priest ordayned by authority derived from the See of Rome is, by the Law of the Nation, to die as a Traytor, but if that be so what must become of all the Clergymen of the Church of England, for the first Protestant Bishops had their Ordination from those of the Church of Rome, or not at all, as appears by their own writers so that Ordination comes derivatively from those now living.

-- Saint John Plessington from the gallows just before his martyrdom

Saint Louis Marie de Montfort Quote

If you say the Rosary faithfully unto death, I assure you that, in spite of the gravity of your sins, you will receive a "never fading crown of glory". (1 Peter 5:4)

-- Saint Louis Marie de Montfort

Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina Quote

The greatest mercy of God is not to let those nations remain in peace with each other who are not at peace with God.

-- Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina

Saint Anthony Mary Zaccaria Quote

That which God commands seems difficult and a burden. The way is rough; you draw back; you have no desire to follow it. Yet do so and you will attain glory.

-- Saint Anthony Mary Zaccaria

Saint Ignatius of Loyola Quote

Idleness begets a life of discontent. It develops self-love, which is the cause of all our miseries, and renders us unworthy to receive the favors of divine love.

-- Saint Ignatius of Loyola

Saint Thomas of Villanova Quote

Charity is not just giving, rather removing the need of those who receive charity and liberating them from it when possible.

-- Saint Thomas of Villanova

Saint Josemaria Escriva Quote

Our neighbours' problems must be our problems. Christian fraternity should be something very deep in the soul, so that we are indifferent to no one. Mary, who brought up Jesus and accompanied him through his life and is now beside him in heaven, will help us recognize Jesus as he crosses our path and makes himself present to us in the needs of our fellow men.

-- Saint Josemaria Escriva

Saint Thomas Aquinas Quote

The Blessed Eucharist is the perfect Sacrament of the Lord's Passion, since It contains Christ Himself and his Passion.

-- Saint Thomas Aquinas
