On this earth everyone has his cross. But we must act in such a way that we be not the bad, but good thief.
Pio of PietrelcinaPeace is the simplicity of heart, serenity of mind, tranquility of soul, the bond of love.
Pio of PietrelcinaDo not let your heart become troubled by the sad spectacle of human injustice. Even this has its value in the face of all else. And it is from this that one day you will see the justice of God rising with unfailing triumph.
Pio of PietrelcinaWhy should you worry whether God wants you to reach the heavenly home by way of the desert or by the fields, when by the one as well as by the other one arrives all the same at a Blessed Eternity? Keep far from you excessive preoccupation which arises from the trials which the good God wishes to visit upon you.
