People who really want help may attack you if you help them. Help them anyway.

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.

Duty is a very personal thing. It is what comes from knowing the need to take action and not just a need to urge others to do something.

The humility of Jesus can be seen in the crib, in the exile to Egypt, in the hidden life, in the inability to make people understand Him, in the desertion of His apostles, in the hatred of His persecutors, in all the terrible suffering and death of His Passion, and now in His permanent state of humility in the tabernacle, where He has reduced Himself to such a small particle of bread that the priest can hold Him with two fingers. The more we empty ourselves, the more room we give God to fill us.

I think that a person who is attached to riches, who lives with the worry of riches, is actually very poor. If this person puts his money at the service of others, then he is rich, very rich.

People crave attention and appreciation more than they do bread.

It is Christmas every time you let God love others through you...yes, it is Christmas every time you smile at your brother and offer him your hand.
