To make intercession for men is the most powerful and practical way in which we can express our love for them.

For there is no one so great or mighty that he can avoid the misery that will rise up against him when he resists and strives against God.

The Angels are the dispensers and administrators of the Divine beneficence toward us. They regard our safety, undertake our defense, direct our ways, and exercise a constant solicitude that no evil befall us.

Whether each of the faithful has a particular angel assigned him for his defence, I cannot venture certainly to affirm... not one angel only has the care of every one of us, but that they all with one consent watch for our salvation.

If we are proud of our talents we betray our lack of gratitude to God.

The evil in our desires typically does not lie in what we want, but that we want it too much.

The glory of God shines, indeed, in all creatures on high and below, but never more brightly than in the cross.
