Saint Jerome Quote

You say in your book that while we live we are able to pray for each other, but afterwards when we have died, the prayer of no person for another can be heard.... But if the apostles and martyrs while still in the body can pray for others, at a time when they ought still be solicitous about themselves, how much more will they do so after their crowns, victories, and triumphs?

-- Saint Jerome from “Against Vigilantius”

Pope Saint Gregory the Great Quote

He causes his prayers to be of more avail to himself, who offers them also for others.

-- Pope Saint Gregory the Great

Saint Vincent de Paul Quote

As it is most certain that the teaching of Christ cannot deceive, if we would walk securely, we ought to attach ourselves to it with greatest confidence and to profess openly that we live according to it, and not to the maxims of the world, which are all deceitful. This is the fundamental maxim of all Christian perfection.

-- Saint Vincent de Paul

Saint Marie Victoire Therese Couderc Quote

All places are alike to me, because everywhere I expect to find God, who is the only object of all my desires.

-- Saint Marie Victoire Therese Couderc

Saint Teresa of Avila Quote

All blessings come to us through our Lord. He will teach us, for in beholding his life we find that he is the best example.

-- Saint Teresa of Avila

Saint Amma Syncletice Quote

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
