Quotes

A collection of scriptural meditations from Saints and Fathers of the Church.

For it is written in the Scriptures: 'Let him who stands take heed lest he fall.' (I Corinthians 10:12) Let your salvation be founded in the Lord.'

Was there ever anyone of any breeding who dared to speak the name of Holy Mary, and being questioned, did not immediately add, 'the Virgin'? For by such added names the positive proofs of merit are apparent... And to the Holy Mary, Virgin is invariably added, for that Holy Woman remains undefiled.

A holy man told us one day, that the source of all heresies and schisms in the church was, loving God too little, and ourselves too much.

Reading the scriptures is a great safeguard against sin.
