Be content to progress in slow steps until you have legs to run and wings with which to fly.

Humility and purity are the wings which carry us to God and make us almost divine.

It is necessary to be strong, in order to become great: that is our duty. Life is a struggle, which we cannot avoid. We must triumph!

Why fly like a hen when you can soar like an eagle?

Recommend me to the Lord and to the Virgin Mother because I am in extreme need of their help.

It is true that God's power triumphs over everything, but humble and suffering prayer prevails over God Himself.

Ahead! Courage! In the spiritual life he who does not advance goes backward. It happens as with a boat which always must go ahead. If it stands still the wind will blow it back.
