Then fear will grow pale and fade away, and you will be free, through your faith in our strong and living Savior, Jesus Christ.

The church ... is not just to bandage the victims under the wheel, but to put a spoke in the wheel itself.

Right speech comes out of silence and right silence comes out of speech.

True prayer is done in secret, but this does not rule out the fellowship of prayer altogether, however clearly we may be aware of its dangers. In the last resort it is immaterial whether we pray in the open street or in the secrecy of our chambers, whether briefly or lenghtily, in the Litany of the Church, or with the sigh of one who knows not what he should pray for. True prayer does not depend either on the individual or the whole body of the faithful, but solely upon the knowledge that our Heavenly Father knows our needs.

Earthly goods are given to be used, not to be collected.... Hoarding is idolatry.

Judging others makes us blind, whereas love is illuminating. By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.

The Church is the Church only when it exists for others...not dominating, but helping and serving. It must tell men of every calling what it means to live for Christ, to exist for others.
