“You have made us for Yourself
and our hearts are restless
until they rest in You.”
St Augustine (354-430)
Father and Doctor of the Church
“ He who finds Jesus, finds a rare treasure,
indeed, a good above every good,
whereas he who loses Him,
loses more than the whole world.
The man who lives without Jesus,
is the poorest of the poor,
whereas no-one is so rich,
as the man who lives in His grace.
… Let all things be loved, for the sake of Jesus
but Jesus, for His own sake.”
Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471)
“By giving yourself to God,
you not only receive Himself in exchange
but, eternal life as well!”
St Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
Doctor Caritatis
“Where is the heart that loves?
On the thing it loves.
Therefore, where our love is,
there our heart is held captive.
It cannot leave it;
it cannot be lifted higher,
it cannot go either to the right or the left;
see, it is fixed.
Where the miser’s treasure is,
there is his heart
and where our heart is,
there is our treasure.”
St Vincent de Paul (1581-1660)
