Criticism of others
September 28
“Criticism of others is thus an oblique form of self-commendation. We think we make the picture hang straight on our wall by telling our neighbors that all his pictures are crooked.”
-Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Authentic love
September 27
“It takes three to make love, not two: you, your spouse, and God. Without God people only succeed in bringing out the worst in one another. Lovers who have nothing else to do but love each other soon find there is nothing else. Without a central loyalty life is unfinished.”
-Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen
The way of the Cross
September 26
“Never forget that there are only two philosophies to rule your life: the one of the cross, which starts with the fast and ends with the feast. The other of Satan, which starts with the feast and ends with the headache.”
-Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen
No room for God
September 25
“Far better it is for you to say: ‘I am a sinner,’ than to say: ‘I have no need of religion.’ The empty can be filled, but the self-intoxicated have no room for God.”
-Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Beatification of Fulton Sheen
Beatification of Fulton Sheen
“Our happiest times are those in which we forget ourselves, usually in being kind to someone else. That tiny moment of self-abdication is an act of true humility: the man who loses himself finds himself and finds his happiness.”
-Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen
If I were not a Catholic
“If I were not a Catholic, and were looking for the true Church in the world today, I would look for the one Church which did not get along well with the world; in other words, I would look for the Church which the world hated.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Difficulties and uncertainty are part of life
“Nothing is more destined to create deep-seated anxieties in people than the false assumption that life should be free from anxieties.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
On your knees
“It's impossible to lose your footing when you're on your knees."
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
If you do not worship God...
“If you do not worship God, you worship something, and nine times out of ten it will be yourself. You have a duty to worship God, not because He will be imperfect and unhappy if you do not, but because you will be imperfect and unhappy.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
