How truly blessed we shall be if at the price of even very great sacrifices we shall have made God known and loved by one more soul!

If humility is always desirable, generous humility is still more so.

We are entirely in the care of Divine Providence, and it is very sweet to remain so in peace. The Cross is never lacking; may it be our consolation.

Profit by the little trials that come to you, for through them we make real progress.

All desire but that of doing God's holy will has been extinguished in me.

It fills me with joy to realize that I can lay down my life daily for God, that I can sacrifice it willingly for Him. I may not be a martyr for the faith, but I can be a martyr of charity.

We cultivate a very small field for Christ, but we love it, knowing that God does not require great achievements but a heart that holds back nothing for self.
