St. Francis de Sales
“Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly.”
“We all have a vocation. We believe that God has placed us in this life to fill a special need that no one else can accomplish.”
“Everyone of us needs half an hour of prayer each day, except when we are busy – then we need an hour.”
“Nothing is so strong as gentleness; nothing is so gentle as real strength.”
“Never miss an opportunity to do good.”
“The soul cannot live without love. We can never love our neighbor too much.”
“Lord, I am Yours, and I must belong to no one but You. My soul is Yours, and must live only by You. My will is Yours, and must love only for You. I must love You as my first cause, since I am from You. I must love You as my end and rest, since I am for You. I must love You more than my own being, since my being subsists by You. I must love You more than myself, since I am all Yours and all in You. Amen.”
“Let us run to Mary, and, as her little children, cast ourselves into her arms with a perfect confidence.”
