St. Therese of Lusieux biography St. Thomas of Villanova biography
"Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be - and becoming that person."
"Our Lord needs from us neither great deeds nor profound thoughts. Neither intelligence nor talents. He cherishes simplicity."
"You know well enough that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love at which we do them."
"For one pain endured with joy, we shall love the good God more forever."
"If you want God to hear your prayers, hear the voice of the poor. If you wish God to anticipate your wants, provide those of the needy without waiting for them to ask you. Especially anticipate the needs of those who are ashamed to beg. To make them ask for alms is to make them buy it."
