The Church of Christ has been founded by shedding its own blood, not that of others; by enduring outrage, not by inflicting it. Persecutions have made it grow; martyrdoms have crowned it.

Without doubt, the Lord grants all favors which are asked of Him in Mass, provided they be fitting for us.

Haste is of the Devil.

Whosoever you are who introduce new doctrines, I beseech you to spare the ears of Romans! Spare that faith which was commended by the voice of an Apostle. Why should you attempt to teach us, at the end of hundreds of years, that which we never heard before? Why bring forward what Peter and Paul did not will to make known? Until this day, the world was Christian without your doctrine. Thus, I hold as an old man onto that faith wherein I was regenerated as a boy.

Keep always busy so that the devil will find you always engaged.

Virginity can be lost by a thought.

Let us learn upon earth those things which can call us to heaven.
