“Nothing created has ever been able
to fill the heart of man.
God alone can fill it infinitely.”
“It is only God who creates.
Man merely rearranges.”
“When the devil is called
the god of this world,
it is not because he made it
but because we serve him
with our worldliness.”
“To pretend angels do not exist
because they are invisible,
is to believe we never sleep
because we don’t see ourselves sleeping.”
“Charity is
the form,
mover,
mother
and root
of all
the virtues.”
“To love is to
will the good
of the other.”
“The greatest kindness
one can render
to any man
consists in leading him
from error to truth.”
“Believing is
an act of the intellect
assenting to the divine truth,
by command of the will,
moved by God through grace.”
“He who is NOT angry
when there is just cause
for anger is IMMORAL.
WHY?
Because anger looks to
the good of justice.
And if you can live amid injustice
without anger,
you ARE IMMORAL
as well as UNJUST!”
“The celebration of Holy Mass
is as valuable, as the death
of Jesus on the cross.”
“Mary means Star of the sea,
for as mariners are guided to port
by the ocean star, so Christians attain
to glory through Mary’s maternal intercession.”
