Life is passing, Eternity draws nigh: soon shall we live the very life of God. After having drunk deep at the fount of bitterness, our thirst will be quenched at the very source of all sweetness.
–Saint Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897)
Little by little, words disappear, and our communication with God becomes the divine communication of silence.
–Luis M. Martinez (1881-1956)
To be quiet then, to choose not to excuse ourselves when we could, through love of humility, is a silence that imitates Jesus in His Passion.
–Luis M. Martinez (1881-1956)
Together with the grace of suffering, spiritual tempests bring the grace of humility, a new, deep humility that hollows out in the soul a void so immense that God fits into it.
–Luis M. Martinez (1881-1956)
The root of all evil is ‘I’, ‘Me,’ ‘Mine.’
–Saint Pio (1887-1968)
Continue to love Jesus and make an effort to love Him more and more, without desiring to know anything else.
–Saint Pio (1887-1968)
