You have nothing to do but to save souls. Therefore spend and be spent in this work. And go not only to those that need you, but to those that need you most. It is not your business to preach so many times, and to take care of this or that society; but to save as many souls as you can; to bring as many sinners as you possibly can to repentance.

The church changes the world not by making converts but by making disciples.

A constant attention to the work which God entrusts us with is a mark of solid piety.

God is so great that He communicates greatness to the least thing that is done for His service.

Passion and prejudice govern the world; only under the name of reason.
