Saint Quote : Saint Bernardine of Siena

By word of mouth, by letters, by miracles, and by the example of his own life, Saint Paul bore the name of Jesus wherever he went. He praised the name of Jesus "at all times," but never more than when "bearing witness to his faith." 

-- Saint Bernardine of Siena from one of his sermons

Saint Quote: Saint Crispin of Viterbo

You are a wise doctor and the city of Rome acknowledges that fact. But the Holy Virgin is much wiser than you and all the physicians of the world.

-- Saint Crispin of Viterbo to the Vatican physician

Saint Quote: Saint John of the Cross

Would that men might come at last to see that it is quite impossible to reach the thicket of the riches and wisdom of God except by first entering the thicket of much suffering, in such a way that the soul finds there its consolation and desire. The soul that longs for divine wisdom chooses first, and in truth, to enter the thicket of the cross.

-- Saint John of the Cross

Saint Quote: Saint Louise de Marillac

Do not cease praying for your children; God's grace can touch a hardened heart. Commend your children to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. When parents pray the Rosary,at the end of each decade they should hold the Rosary aloft and say to her,"With these beads bind my children to your Immaculate Heart", she will attend to their souls.

-- Saint Louise de Marillac

Saint Quote: Saint Simon Stock

Carmel’s Flower,

Vine ever blossoming,

Heaven’s splendor!

Virgin who bore a child.

No one is like thee.

Mother gentle and kind.

Yet never touched by man!

To Carmelites give thou the privilege.

Help us Star of the Sea.

-- Saint Simon Stock

Saint Quote: Saint Vincent de Paul

We have never so much cause for consolation, as when we find ourselves oppressed by sufferings and trials; for these make us like Christ our Lord, and this resemblance is the true mark of our predestination. 

-- Saint Vincent de Paul

Saint Quote: Saint Andrew Avellino

One cannot separate the most Holy Eucharist from the Passion of Jesus.
