When I am before the Blessed Sacrament I feel such a lively faith that I can't describe it. Christ in the Eucharist is almost tangible to me...When it is time for me to leave, I have to tear myself away from His sacred presence.
- St. Anthony of Claret
Those whose hearts are pure are temples of the Holy Spirit.
- St. Lucy
God gave Himself to you: give yourself to God.
- Blessed Robert Southwell
The devil strains every nerve to secure the souls which belong to Christ. We should not grudge our toil in wresting them from Satan and giving them back to God.
- St. Sebastian
The Holy Rosary is the storehouse of countless blessings.
- Blessed Alan de la Roche
Stop entertaining those vain fears. Remember it is not feeling which constitutes guilt but the consent to such feelings. Only the free will is capable of good or evil. But when the will sighs under the trial of the tempter and does not will what is presented to it, there is not only no fault but there is virtue.
- Padre Pio
Mary was raised to the dignity of Mother of God rather for sinners than for the just, since Jesus Christ declares that he came to call not the just, but sinners.
- St. Anselm
