Heaven is not made for the slothful.

He who is unable to spend a long time together in prayer, should often lift up his mind to God by short prayers.

Let us be humble and keep ourselves down: - Obedience! Humility! Detachment!

In sickness we ought to ask God to give us patience, because it often happens, that when a man gets well, he not only does not do the good he proposed to do when he was sick, but he multiplies his sins and his ingratitude.

The best way to prepare for death is to spend every day of life as though it were the last.

The great thing is to become Saints.

Let the sick man enter into the Side of Jesus and His most holy Wounds; let him not be afraid, but combat manfully, and he will come forth victorious.
