  • One day through the ROSARY and the SCAPULAR,  I will save the world.

    These words were spoken by our BLESSED MOTHER MARY to Saint Dominic in the year 1208.

  • The Lord did not come to make a display. He came to heal and to teach suffering men. For one who wanted to make a display the thing would have been just to appear and dazzle the beholders. But for Him Who came to heal and to teach the way was not merely to dwell here, but to put Himself at the disposal of those who needed Him, and to be manifested according as they could bear it, not vitiating the value of the Divine appearing by exceeding their capacity to receive it.
    -St. Athanasius
    I hold it true, whate'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.
    (In Memoriam A. H. H., 27.13-17 Alfred, Lord Tennyson)

    They accidentally get some of these right, like Charbel and Padre Pio ... but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

    Definitely. Charbel, Padre Pio, all of the Venerables, Blesseds, and Servants of God from pre V2 they canonized like Martin de Porres, as well as others like the Eastern Catholics they've canonized, Fr. Damien, and Solanus Casey are all legitimately saintly people. 
    Some of the others, less so.

  • You will not see anyone who is truly striving after his spiritual advancement who is not given to spiritual reading.
    -St. Athanasius

    I hold it true, whate'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.

  • Disasters teach us humility.
    -St. Anselm of Canterbury

  • You have within you everything that you need to purchase the kingdom of heaven.
    Joy will be purchased by your sorrow,
    rest by your labour,
    glory by your humiliation,
    and eternal life by your passing death.

                                             St. Augustine
    "Let God arise, and let His enemies be scattered: and them that hate Him flee from before His Holy Face"  Psalm 67:2[/b]
