Since the age of three I have refused God nothing.

Remember that nothing is small in the eyes of God. Do all that you do with love.

The value of life does not depend upon the place we occupy. It depends upon the way we occupy that place.

Miss no single opportunity of making some small sacrifice, here by a smiling look, there by a kindly word; always doing the smallest right and doing it all for love.

Perfect love means putting up with other peoples shortcomings, feeling no surprise at their weaknesses, finding encouragement even in the slightest evidence of good qualities in them.

Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be and becoming that person.

Our Lord needs from us neither great deeds nor profound thoughts. Neither intelligence nor talents. He cherishes simplicity.

You know well that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, as at the love with which we do them.

When I die, I will send down a shower of roses from the heavens,I will spend my heaven by doing good on earth.

Above the clouds the sky is always blue.

If all flowers wanted to be roses, nature would lose her springtime beauty and the fields would no longer be decked out with little wildflowers.

It must once again become a common knowledge to our people that it is only the wealth that we create that we can share.

For those special moments you never want to forget. When it comes to you, all I need is a pencilEthan

and so when I couldn't stand it no longer, I lit out. I got into my old rags and my sugar-hogshead again, and was free and satisfied.

Political Islam is not a homogeneous bloc.

He was distinguished for ignorance; for he had only one idea, and that was wrong.

The quintessential expression of coffee is espresso.

Reality is not the world as you perceive it. Reality is the world perceived through enlightenment. It's the same world; but it's not the same world.

Focusing on the score attaches you to the result. Focusing on the process lets you access your greatest skill and increases your fun.

If you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to seem a whole lot longer than you'd like.

God reserves the right to use people who disagree with me.
