Mercy is a compassion that seeks to unburden the sorrows of others as if they were our own. But if we have no such compassion, then how can compassion ever come back to us? Unless we throw something up, nothing will come down; unless there is an action, there can never be a reaction; unless we give, it shall not be given to us; unless we love, we shall not be loved; unless we pardon evil, our evil shall not be forgiven; unless we are merciful to others, God cannot be merciful to us.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
If you do not live what you believe, you will end up believing what you live.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
The proud man counts his newspaper clippings; the humble, his blessings.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
To create the world cost God nothing; to save it from sin cost His Life Blood.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
It is easy to find truth, though it is hard to face it, and harder still to follow it.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
