“Do not accept anything as love which lacks truth.”

The motive, principle, and end of the religious life is to make an absolute gift of self to God in a self-forgetting love, to end one’s own life in order to make room for God’s life.

Usually one gets a heavier cross when one attempts to get rid of an old one.

Just take everything exactly as it is, put it in God’s hands and leave it with Him.

Everywhere the need exists for maternal sympathy and help.

Each woman who lives in the light of eternity can fulfill her vocation, no matter if it is in marriage, in a religious order, or in a worldly profession.

Woman naturally seeks to embrace that which is living, personal, and whole. To cherish, guard, protect, nourish and advance growth is her natural, maternal yearning.

The woman’s soul is fashioned as a shelter in which other souls may unfold.

Energy apparently increases with the amount of work to be done. When nothing of burning urgency is waiting, it decreases much sooner. Heaven seems to understand such economy.

The Bread that we need each day to grow in eternal life, makes of our will a docile instrument of the Divine Will; sets the Kingdom of God within us; gives us pure lips, and a pure heart with which to glorify his holy name.

There is no profession which cannot be practiced by a woman.

The nation doesn’t simply need what we have. It needs what we are.

Every true prayer is a prayer of the Church; by means of that prayer the Church prays, since it is the Holy Spirit living in the Church, Who in every single soul ‘prays in us with unspeakable groanings’.

Anyone who seeks truth seeks God, whether or not he realizes it.

The limitless loving devotion to God, and the gift God makes of Himself to you, are the highest elevation of which the heart is capable; it is the highest degree of prayer. The souls that have reached this point are truly the heart of the Church.

We will always find fundamentally the compulsion to become what the soul should be.

On the question of relating to our fellowman – our neighbor’s spiritual need transcends every commandment. Everything else we do is a means to an end. But love is an end already, since God is love.

Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but no one wants to die to get there!

The good befriend themselves.

Religion began as a natural explanation of the universe. The problem started when people refused to accept new evidence.

People will generally accept facts as truth only if the facts agree with what they already believe.

I applied to Uncyclopedia Bassists, and was accepted!!

The sign of a good society is where talent is respected.

You are everything to me, that includes every broken piece of you.

We should not be ashamed to acknowledge truth from whatever source it comes to us, even if it is brought to us by former generations and foreign people. For him who seeks the truth there is nothing of higher value than truth itself.
