While I thought that I was learning how to live, I have been learning how to die.
–Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

–Saint Albert the Great (c. 1206-1280)
Submit to God’s will…
Have a firm and unshakeable determination to submit yourselves to God’s will.
— Saint Angela Merici (1474-1540)
Our willingness…
Sometimes when our Lord asks us to do some good work, all He really wants is our willingness to do the work, and not is accomplishment.
— Saint Jane Frances de Chantal (1572-1641)
Practice prayer…
It is of great importance, when we begin to practice prayer, not to let ourselves be frightened by our own thoughts.
–Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)
Jesus Christ endured for us…
There is no affliction, trial, or labor difficult to endure, when we consider the torments and sufferings which Our Lord Jesus Christ endured for us.
–Saint Teresa of Ávila (1515-1582)
