Sanctify yourself…
Sanctify yourself and you will sanctify society.
— Saint Francis of Assisi (1181–1226)
The journey is…
The journey is essential to the dream.
–Saint Francis of Assisi (1181–1226)
To be a saint…
Our greatest fault is that we wish to serve God in our way, not in His way — according to our will, not according to His will…. To be truly a saint, it is necessary to be one according to the will of God.
— Saint Frances de Sales (1567-1622)
Mold your life…
Examine from time to time what are the dominant passions of your soul, and having ascertained this, mold your life, so that in thought, word and deed you may as far as possible counteract them.
— Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
Progress in perfection…
Keep yourself faithfully in the presence of God; avoid hurry and anxiety, for there are no greater obstacles to our progress in perfection. Have an unlimited confidence in his mercy and goodness.
–Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
Salvation through the Cross…
All those who are willing to be saved through the cross will find salvation there. But those who desire to be saved without it will perish miserably. There is no salvation except in this cross.
— Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622)
