Saint Quote: Saint John of Sahagun

". . . a preacher must be prepared in his soul to speak the truth, both in denouncing and correcting shortcomings and in praising virtue, to such a point that he is willing in that cause even to face death."

--Saint John of Sahagun (his response to a Duke's complaint that not only did the Saint point out the sins of the common people, he also pointed out those of the nobility as well.)

Saint Quote: Saint Stephen the Martyr

But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looking up steadfastly to heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God. And he said: Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

--St. Stephen from Acts 7:55
