In the same way a powerful medicine cures an illness, so illness itself is a medicine to cure passion. And there is much profit of soul in bearing illness quietly and giving thanks to God.

-- Saint Amma Syncletice

Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina Quote

Remember, that the devil has only one door by which to enter the soul: the will. There are secret or hidden doors. Temptations, discouragement, and unrest are the wares offered by the enemy. Remember this: if the devil makes noise, it is a sign that he is still outside and not yet within. That which must terrify us is his peace and concord within the human soul.

-- Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina

Saint Augustine of Hippo Quote

Accordingly, we should pray for pardon if we have sinned, as we do when we say, "Forgive us our debts as we also forgive our debtors." But we should also pray that God should guide us away from sin, and this we do when we say, "Lead us not into temptation"--and we should make our petitions to Him of whom it is said in the psalm, "The Lord is my light and my salvation"(Psalms 27:1.); that, as Light, he may take away our ignorance, as Salvation, our weakness.

-- Saint Augustine of Hippo from “Enchiridion On Faith, Hope, and Love”

Saint Isidore of Seville Quote

Learning unsupported by grace may get into our ears; it never reaches the heart. But when God's Grace touches our innermost minds to bring understanding, His word which has been received by the ear sinks deep into the heart.

-- Saint Isidore of Seville from his writing "The Book of Maxims"

Saint Paul Chong Hasang Quote

I have told you that I am a Christian, and will be one until my death.
