Silence gives us a new outlook on everything. We need silence to be able to touch souls. The essential thing is not what we say but what God says to us and through us.

Let anyone who comes to you go away feeling better and happier. Everyone should see goodness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile. Joy shows from the eyes. It appears when we speak and walk. It cannot be kept closed inside us. It reacts outside. Joy is very infectious.

Let us love one another as God loves each one of us. And where does this love begin? In our own home. How does it begin? By praying together.

The poor give us much more than we give them. They're such strong people, living day to day with no food. And they never curse, never complain. We don't have to give them pity or sympathy. We have so much to learn from them.

It is a kingly act to assist the fallen.

It often happens that those who spend their time giving light to others, remain in darkness themselves.

What we need is love without getting tired.
