To a brave man, good and bad luck are like his left and right hand. He uses both.
St. Catherine of SienaNo one should judge that he has greater perfection because he performs great penances and gives himself in excess to the staying of the body than he who does less, inasmuch as neither virtue nor merit consists therein; for otherwise he would be an evil case, who for some legitimate reason was unable to do actual penance. Merit consists in the virtue of love alone, flavored with the light of true discretion without which the soul is worth nothing.
St. Catherine of SienaTo the servant of God... every place is the right place, and every time is the right time.
