“There are many who excuse themselves, saying that if they were in other circumstancesbishopfultonjsheen they would be much more patient. This is a grave mistake, for it assumes that virtue is a matter of geography, and not of moral effort. It makes little difference where we are; it all depends on what we are thinking about.” 

                                               -Fulton J. Sheen

Section Five:     The Peril of Interior Wounds

“Never must our wounded sensibilities make us indifferent or heardhearted.  The wounds that bleed are still alive;  let us rejoice if an unconscious hand by touching our wound proves that the tissues are full of life and will one day have a sweet healing through a continual interior action.”
