Those who give themselves to prayer should in a special manner have always a devotion to St. Joseph; for I know not how any man can think of the Queen of the angels, during the time that she suffered so much with the Infant Jesus, without giving thanks to St. Joseph for the services he rendered them then.

How is it, Lord, that we are cowards in everything save in opposing thee?

We need no wings to go in search of Him, but have only to look upon Him present within us.

Christ has no body now on earth but yours.

The surest way to determine whether one possesses the love of God is to see whether he or she loves his or her neighbor. These two loves are never separated. Rest assured, the more you progress in love of neighbor the more your love of God will increase.

Truth suffers, but never dies.

That is how His Majesty [the Lord] rewards our good works---I mean, by predisposing us to perform better ones.
