Saint Quote: Saint Paul the Apostle

For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.

-- Saint Paul the Apostle from 2 Timothy 4: 6 - 8

Saint Quote: Saint John Baptist de la Salle

Vigilance and prayer are the safeguards of chastity. You should pray often and fervently to be preserved from temptations against purity, and for the grace to overcome them.

-- Saint John Baptist de la Salle

Saint Quote: Saint Ambrose of Milan

Our own evil inclinations are far more dangerous than any external enemies.

-- Saint Ambrose of Milan

Saint Quote: Saint Augustine of Hippo

The garden of the Lord, brethren, includes - yes, it truly includes - includes not only the roses of martyrs but also the lilies of virgins, and the ivy of married people, and the violets of widows. There is absolutely no kind of human beings, my dearly beloved, who need to despair of their vocation; Christ suffered for all. It was very truly written about him: who wishes all men to be saved, and to come to the acknowledgement of the truth.

-- Saint Augustine of Hippo

Saint Quote: Pope Saint Clement I

Let us fix our attention on the blood of Christ and recognize how precious it is to God his Father, since it was shed for our salvation and brought the grace of repentance to all the world.

-- Pope Saint Clement I

Saint Quote: Saint Maximilian Kolbe

Never be afraid of loving the Blessed Virgin too much. You can never love her more than Jesus did.

-- Saint Maximilian Kolbe

Saint Quote: Saint Katharine Drexel

Christ wishes the Christian Community to be a body that is perfect because we work together towards a single end, and the higher the motive which actuates this collaboration the higher, no doubt, will be the union. Now the end in question is supremely exalted: the continuous sanctification of the Body for the glory of God and the Lamb that was slain.

-- Saint Katharine Drexel
