At the time of your examination(of sins) beware of the devil that ties your tongue.

All the sins of your life seem to be rising up against you. Don't give up hope! On the contrary, call your holy mother Mary, with the faith and abandonment of a child. She will bring peace to your soul.

Don't say, "That person bothers me." Think: "That person sanctifies me".

Either we learn to find the Lord in the ordinary everyday life or else we shall never find him

Say the Holy Rosary. Blessed be that monotony of Hail Mary's which purifies the monotony of your sins!

It's true he was a sinner. But don't pass so final a judgement. Have pity in your heart and don't forget that he may yet be an Augustine, while you remain just another mediocrity.

You're bored? That's because you keep your senses awake and your soul asleep.
