Do not be afraid to say “yes” to Jesus, to find your joy in doing his will...

Too often [the Church] is weighted down and burdened with the sins and failings of her children; too often she appears disfigured and discouraged.

A good school provides a rounded education for the whole person. And a good Catholic school, over and above this, should help all its students to become saints.

The Catechism was not written to please you. It will not make life easy for you, because it demands of you a new life.

Do not be afraid to say “yes” to Jesus, to find your joy in doing his will...

I believe that the most important thing...is to revive in the whole Church that positive tension, that yearning to announce Christ again to contemporary man.

If we let Christ into our lives, we lose nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing of what makes life free, beautiful, and great. No! Only in this friendship are the doors of life opened wide. Only in this friendship is the great potential of human existence truly revealed.
