Holy Wisdom

“Let each of us accept the truth of the following statement and try to make it our most fundamental principle:  Christ’s teaching will never let us down, while worldly wisdom always will.  Christ Himself said that this sort of wisdom was like a house with nothing but sand as its foundation, while His own was like a building with solid rock as its foundation.”-St. Vincent de Paul

“Since Christ Himself has said, “This is My Body” who shall dare to doubt that It is His Body?”-St. Cyril of Jerusalem

“Teach us to give and not count the cost.”-St. Ignatius of Loyola

“Pray as though everything depended on God.  Work as though everything depended on you.”=St. Augustine

“On the question of relating to our fellowman- our neighbor’s spiritual need transcends every commandment.  Everything else we do is a means to an end.  But LOVE is an end already, since GOD IS LOVE.”- Sr. Teresia Benedicta of the Cross

“If you are what you should be, you will set the whole world ablaze!”-St. Catherine of Sienna

“Charity is certainly greater than any rule.  Moreover, all rules must lead to charity.”- St. Vincent de Paul

“We are to love God for Himself, because of a twofold reason; nothing is more reasonable, nothing more profitable.”-St. Bernard of Clairvaux

“You can not be half a saint; you must be a whole saint or none at all.”-St. Therese of Lisieux

“Let us go forward in peace, our eyes upon Heaven, the only one goal of our labors.”-St. Therese of Lisieux
