"If a man finds it very hard to forgive injuries, let him look at a Crucifix, and think that Christ shed all His Blood for him, and not only forgave His enemies, but even prayed His Heavenly Father to forgive them also. Let him remember that when he says the Pater Noster, every day, instead of asking pardon for his sins, he is calling down vengeance on himself."

First let a little love find entrance into their hearts, and the rest will follow.

At communion we ought to ask for the remedy of the vice to which we feel ourselves most inclined.

We must often remember what Christ said, that not he who begins, but he that perseveres to the end, shall be saved.

The great thing is to become Saints.

They who have been exercised in the service of God for a long time, may in their prayers imagine all sorts of insults offered to them, such as blows, wounds, and the like, and so in order to imitate Christ by their charity, may accustom their hearts beforehand to forgive real injuries when they come.

We must not trust in ourselves, but take the advice of our spiritual father, and recommend ourselves to everybodys prayers.
