Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
-- Saint Ananias of Damascus from Acts 9:17

Saint Francis de Sales Quote
Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.

Saint John the Almoner Quote
For
as the laws of God and man forbid any one, who has a wife living, to
cohabit with another woman, how distant or for how long a time soever
his lawful wife may be separated from him, so he who has been
espoused to Christ in the Catholic Church, cannot without the crime
of spiritual adultery, upon any pretext whatsoever, engage himself in
the communion of heretics.

Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta Quote (On Roe vs. Wade)
America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe vs. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has shown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father’s role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts ~ a child ~ as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience. It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters. And in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being’s entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign.

Saint Maria Cristina dell’Immacolata Concezione Quote
Love of God and of neighbour are two branches that are connected to the same trunk. The love of God gives life to the love of neighbour; and this, in turn, nourishes love towards God.

Saint Joseph Sebastian Pelczar Quote
One
of the most ardent desires of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is that his
Most Holy Mother be venerated and loved by all: firstly, because the
Lord himself has ineffable love for her, and then because he made her
the mother of all men, so that with her sweetness she might attract
to herself even those who flee the Holy Cross, and bring them to the
Divine Heart.
