The proof of love is…
The proof of love is in the works. Where love exists, it works great things. But when it ceases to act, it ceases to exist.
–Saint Gregory the Great (c. 540-604)
One right ambition…
There is but one right kind of ambition: to love God, and as the reward of loving him, to love him more.
–Saint Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556)
God is in love with us…
God is in love with us and keeps using you and me to light the light of love in the world. Let His light of truth be in your life so that God can continue loving the world through you and me. Put your heart into being a bright light.
–Saint Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)
Nothing sweeter than love…
Nothing sweeter than love, nothing stronger or higher or wider, nothing is more pleasant, nothing fuller, and nothing better in heaven or on earth, for love is born of God and cannot rest except in God.
— Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471)
Love makes the soul…
A single act of love makes the soul return to life.
–Saint Maximilian Kolbe (1894-1941)
