Be patient with everyone, but above all with yourself. I mean do not be disheartened by your imperfections, but always rise up with fresh courage

All the science of the Saints is included in these two things: To do, and to suffer. And whoever had done these two things best, has made himself most saintly.

Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them -- every day begin the task anew.

To love our neighbor in charity is to love God in man.

Consider all the past as nothing, and say, like David: Now I begin to love my God.

All of us can attain to Christian virtue and holiness, no matter in what condition of life we live and no matter what our life work may be.

Have patience to walk with short steps until you have wings to fly.
