Quote for the Night

[Shin]

'Everything depends on prayer well made; but in order to pray well, one must be very recollected and mortified.'

St. Margaret Mary Alacoque

[Shin]

'We protest before heaven and earth that our glory is in the cross, that it is the source of all our blessings, our every hope, and that it is that which has crowned every saint.'

St. John Chrysostom

[Shin]

'And all the days of thy life have God in thy mind: and take heed thou never consent to sin, nor transgress the commandments of the Lord our God.'

Tobais 4:6

[Shin]

'In the warfare of the flesh, only cowards gain the victory; that is to say, those who fly.'

St. Philip Neri

[Shin]

'What then should a Catholic do if some part of the Church were to separate itself from communion with the universal Faith? What other choice can he make but to prefer to the gangrenous and corrupted member the whole of the body that is sound. And if some new contagion were to try to poison no longer a small part of the Church, but all of the Church at the same time, then he will take the greatest care to attach himself to antiquity which, obviously, can no longer be seduced by any lying novelty.'

St. Vincent of Lerins
