Saint Quote: Blessed Mary Elizabeth Hesselblad

We must nourish a great love for God and our neighbors; a strong love, an ardent love, a love that burns away imperfections, a love that gently bears an act of impatience, or a bitter word, a love that lets an inadvertence or act of neglect pass without comment, a love that lends itself readily to an act of charity. 

-- Blessed Mary Elizabeth Hesselblad

Saint Quote: Saint Cyprian of Carthage

Let us remember one another in concord and unanimity. Let us on both sides of death always pray for one another. Let us relieve burdens and afflictions by mutual love, that if one of us, by the swiftness of divine condescension, shall go hence the first, our love may continue in the presence of the Lord, and our prayers for our brethren and sisters not cease in the presence of the Father's mercy. 

-- Saint Cyprian of Carthage

Saint Quote: Saint Paul the Apostle On The Holy Eucharist

For as often as you shall eat this bread, and drink the chalice, you shall shew the death of the Lord, until he come.

-- Saint Paul the Apostle from 1 Corinthians 11: 26

Saint Quote: Saint Justin Martyr

And I, being a man, think that what I can say is insignificant in comparison with His boundless divinity, acknowledging a certain prophetic power, since it was prophesied concerning Him of whom now I say that He is the Son of God. For I know that of old the prophets foretold His appearance among men.

-- Saint Justin Martyr from his trial

Saint Quote: The Blessed Virgin Mary, The Magnificat

"The Magnificat" -- by James Tissot

My soul doth magnify the Lord,

And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; 

for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed..

Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name.

And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.

He hath shewed might in his arm:

he hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart.

He hath put down the mighty from their seat,

and hath exalted the humble.

He hath filled the hungry with good things;

and the rich he hath sent empty away.

He hath received Israel his servant, being mindful of his mercy:

As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed for ever.

-- The Blessed Virgin Mary  as written in Luke 1: 46 - 55

Saint Quote: Saint Joan of Arc

About Jesus Christ and the Church, I simply know they're just one thing, and we shouldn't complicate the matter. 

-- Saint Joan of Arc as recorded at her trial

Saint Quote: Saint Mary Magdalen de' Pazzi

A little drop of simple obedience is worth a million times more than a whole vase of the choicest contemplation. 

-- Saint Mary Magdalen de' Pazzi
