Those who cannot…
Those who cannot see Christ in their neighbor are atheists indeed.
–Dorothy Day (1897–1980)
It is better…
It is better to be cheated into giving too much then to lose one’s soul by giving too little.
–Saint Alphonsus Liguori (1696-1787)
Compassion is…
Compassion is preferable to cleanliness. Reflect that with a little soap I can easily clean my bed covers, but even with a torrent of tears I would never wash from my soul the stain that my harshness toward the unfortunate would create.
–Saint Martin de Porres (1579-1639)
Christ has no body now but yours…
Christ has no body now but yours; no hands, no feet on earth, but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks with compassion on this world; Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good; Yours are the hands with which he blesses all the world. Christ has no body now on earth but yours.
–Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
