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

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 think, if we only got to heaven, what a sweet and easy thing it will be there to be always saying with the angels and the saints, Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus.

Obedience is the true holocaust which we sacrifice to God on the altar of our hearts.

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.

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.

Those who have themselves for a spiritual director have a fool for a spiritual director.
