If we endure all things patiently and with gladness, thinking on the sufferings of our Blessed Lord, and bearing all for the love of Him: herein is perfect joy.

Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received - only what you have given: a full heart, enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage.

By the anxieties and worries of this life Satan tries to dull man's heart and make a dwelling for himself there.

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Not to hurt our humble brethren is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission - to be of service to them whenever they require it.

The brave unfortunate are our best acquaintance.

You can show your love to others by not wishing that they should be better Christians.
