Saint Quote-St. Teresa of Avila

"Were I to give parents counsel,I would warn them to be well advised,As to what persons are the companions,of their children. I profited nothing by the virtue of my sister. But, I retained all the bad example,Given me by another family member,Who had haunted our house."

Saint Quote-Saint Catherine of Bologna

Whoever wishes to carry the cross for his sake must take up the proper weapons for the contest, especially those mentioned here. First, diligence; second, distrust of self; third, confidence in God; fourth, remembrance of Passion; fifth, mindfulness of one's own death; sixth, remembrance of God's glory; seventh, the injunctions of Sacred Scripture following the example of Jesus Christ in the desert.

Saint Quote : Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton

The accidents of life separate us from our dearest friends, but let us not despair. God is like a looking glass in which souls see each other. The more we are united to Him by love, the nearer we are to those who belong to Him.
