Charity is the cement which binds Communities to God and persons to one another . . .

If God is the center of your life, no words are necessary. Your mere presence will touch hearts.

We should spend as much time in thanking God for his benefits as we do in asking him for them.

The most powerful weapon to conquer the devil is humility. For, as he does not know at all how to employ it, neither does he know how to defend himself from it.

We must love our neighbor as being made in the image of God and as an object of His love.

Make it a practice to judge persons and things in the most favorable light at all times and under all circumstances.

Let us do our duty well; let us go straight to God; let us work to become very humble, very patient, very mortified, and very charitable.

God allows us to give rise to the practice of two beautiful virtues: perseverance, which leads us to attain the goal, and constancy, which helps us to overcome difficulties.

Let us allow God to act; He brings things to completion when we least expect it.

You feel your game's raised by working with the best people.

No person is important enough to make me angry.

In love we do not think of moral qualities, and scarcely of intellectual ones. Temperament and manner alone, with beauty, excite love.
