More quotes by Alphonsus Liguori
Love tends to union with the object loved. Now Jesus Christ loves a soul that is in a state of grace with immense love He ardently desires to unite Himself with it. That is what Holy Communion does
Alphonsus Liguori
Assuredly, Loving Souls, you should go to God with all humility and respect, humbling yourselves in His presence, especially when you remember your past ingratitude and sins.
Alphonsus Liguori
There is no one, however wicked, whom Mary does not save by her intercession when she wishes ... He who has recourse to Mary shall be saved.
Alphonsus Liguori
You will gain more by receiving scorn peacefully than if you fasted for a week on bread and water. It is good to humble ourselves but it is much more worthwhile to accept the humiliations that come to us from others.
Alphonsus Liguori
A person may be Baptized, and yet not born again to grace, in consequence of not having the necessary dispositions at Baptism.
Alphonsus Liguori
O God-Man present in this sacrament for me - what a comfort, what a privilege to know I kneel before God! And to think that this God loves me!... Mary, my mother, help me to love him in return
Alphonsus Liguori
What does it cost us to say: My God help me! Have mercy on me! Is there anything easier than this? And this little will suffice to save us if we be diligent in doing it.
Alphonsus Liguori
But You never reject a repentant and humble heart.
Alphonsus Liguori
He who trusts himself is lost. He who trusts in God can do all things.
Alphonsus Liguori
Those who say the Rosary daily and wear the Brown Scapular and who do a little more, will go straight to Heaven.
Alphonsus Liguori
When we hear people talk of riches, honors and amusements of the world, let us remember that all things have an end, and let us then say: My God, I wish for You alone and nothing more.
Alphonsus Liguori
No, he can never be lost who recommends himself to thee, O Mary.
Alphonsus Liguori
The way to Heaven is straight and narrow: they who wish to arrive at that place of bliss by walking in the paths of pleasure shall be disappointed and therefore few reach it, because few are willing to use violence to themselves in resisting temptations.
Alphonsus Liguori
To be silent when we are impelled to utter words injurious to God or to our neighbour, is an act of virtue but, to be silent in confessing our sins, is the ruin of the soul.
Alphonsus Liguori
Do not allow your daughters to be taught letters by a man, though he be a St. Paul or St. Francis of Assissium. The saints are in Heaven.
Alphonsus Liguori
The past is no longer yours the future is not yet in your power. You have only the present wherein to do good.
Alphonsus Liguori
A soul who loves Jesus Christ desires to be treated the way Christ was treated-desires to be poor, despised, and humiliated.
Alphonsus Liguori
If we should be saved and become saints, we ought always to stand at the gates of the Divine mercy to beg and pray for, as an alms, all that we need.
Alphonsus Liguori
God is displeased at the diffidence of souls who love Him sincerely and whom He Himself loves.
Alphonsus Liguori
We must show charity towards the sick, who are in greater need of help. Let us take them some small gift if they are poor, or, at least let us go and wait on them and comfort them.
Alphonsus Liguori
