Saint Rose of Lima Quote
If
only mortals would learn how great it is to possess divine grace, how
beautiful, how noble, how precious. How many riches it hides within
itself, how many joys and delights! No one would complain about his
cross or about troubles that may happen to him, if he would come to
know the scales on which they are weighed when they are distributed
to men.

Saint Amadeus of Lausanne Quote
Because
of the honor due her Son, it was indeed fitting for the Virgin Mother
to have first ruled upon earth and then be raised up to heaven in
glory. It was fitting that her fame be spread in this world below, so
that she might enter the heights of heaven on overwhelming
blessedness. Just as she was borne from virtue to virtue by the
Spirit of the Lord, she was transported from earthly renown to
heavenly brightness.
– Saint
Amadeus of Lausanne
