When we receive Holy Communion, we experience something extraordinary - a joy, a fragrance, a well-being that thrills the whole body and causes it to exalt.

Almighty God sends no trial without consolation.

All that we do without offering it to God is wasted.

The saints had no hatred, no bitterness; they forgive everything and think they deserve much more for their offenses against God.

The Devil writes down our sins - our Guardian Angel all our merits. Labor that the Guardian Angel's book may be full, and the Devil's empty.

Do not try to please everybody. Try to please God, the angels, and the saints - they are your public.

When our hands have touched spices, they give fragrance to all they handle. Let us make our prayers pass through the hands of the Blessed Virgin. She will make them fragrant.
