Quote/s of the Day – 1 November – The Solemnity of All the Saints
“All saints give testimony to the truth,
that without real effort,
no one ever wins the crown.”
St Thomas à Becket (1118-1170)
“A ray of light enables us to see the dust that is in the air.
In the same way, the lives of the Saints show up our defects.
If we fail to see our faults,
it is because we have not looked at the lives of
holy men and women.”
St Anthony of Padua (1195-1231) Doctor of the Church
“God creates out of nothing.
Wonderful you say.
Yes, to be sure but He does.
what is still more wonderful,
He makes saints out of sinners.”
Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855)
“In heaven, we shall not meet with indifferent glances,
because all the elect will discover
that they owe to each other,
the graces that merited the crown for them.”
St Thérèse of the Child Jesus (1873-1897) Doctor of the Church
“Life holds only one tragedy, ultimately,
not to have been a saint.”
Charles Péguy (1873-1914)
“A saint takes his hands off
the steering wheel of his life
and lets God steer.”
