"Peace is the first thing the angels sang. Peace is the mark of the children of God. Peace is the nurse of love. Peace is the mother of unity. Peace is the rest of the blessed souls. Peace is the dwelling place of eternity."
"No one, however weak, is denied a share in the victory of the cross. No one is beyond the help of the prayer of Christ."
"Those who are not good to others are bad to themselves."
"A great safeguard is the entire faith, the true faith, in which neither anything whatever can be added by anyone nor anything taken away; for, unless faith be one, it is not the faith."
"The faith of those who live their faith is a serene faith. What you long for will be given you; what you love will be yours for ever."
