Speak well.
Do well.
These three things,
through the mercy of God,
will make a man go to Heaven.”
St Camillus de Lellis (1550-1614)
“He who wishes for anything but Christ,
does not know what he wishes;
he who asks for anything but Christ,
does not know what he is asking;
he who works and not for Christ,
does not know what he is doing.”
St Philip Neri (1515-1595)
“The great saint may be said,
to mix all his thoughts with thanks.
All goods look better,
when they look like gifts.”
G K Chesterton (1874-1936)
“Enemy-occupied territory –
that is what this world is.
Christianity is the story of how,
the rightful king has landed,
you might say landed in disguise
and is calling us all, to take part,
in a great campaign of sabotage.”
C S Lewis (1898-1963)
“What people don’t realise,
is how much Christianity costs.
They think faith is a big electric blanket,
when of course, it is the cross.”
Flannery O’Connor (1925-1964)
“Take courage!
Fix your gaze on our saints.”
Pope Benedict XVI
“Take the Crucifixion personally.”
“The road to holiness
goes through your neighbour.”
Father Mike Schmitz
