1 " All our religion is but a false religion, and all our virtues are mere illusions and we ourselves are only hypocrites in the sight of God, if we have not that universal charity for everyone--for the good, and for the bad, for the poor and for the rich, and for all those who do us harm as much as those who do us good. "
― John Vianney
2 " Our soul is like a garden in which the weeds are ever ready to choke the good plants and flowers that have been sown in it. If the gardener who has charge of this garden neglects it, if he is not continually using the spade and the hoe, the flowers and plants will soon disappear. "
3 " We must take great care never to do anything before having said our morning prayers...The Devil once declared that if he could have the first moment of the day, he was sure of all the rest. "
4 " How good is our God! When we can no longer come to Him, He comes to us. "
5 " We are each of us like a small mirror in which God searches for His reflection "
6 " You must accept your cross; if you bear it courageously it will carry you to heaven. "
7 " A priest goes to Heaven or a priest goes to Hell with a thousand people behind. "
