More quotes by Alphonsus Liguori
Mary obtains salvation for all who have recourse to her. Oh! If all sinners had recourse to Mary, who would ever be lost? ... He who is protected by her will be saved he who is not will be lost.
Alphonsus Liguori
If you wish to strengthen your confidence in God still more, often recall the loving way in which He has acted toward you, and how mercifully He has tried to bring you out of your sinful life, to break your attachment to the things of earth and draw you to His love.
Alphonsus Liguori
If you embrace all things in this life as coming from the hands of God, and even embrace death to fulfill His holy will, assuredly you will die a saint.
Alphonsus Liguori
Yet you should practice the greatest possible love and confidence in treating with Him.
Alphonsus Liguori
The definitions of the Church are the rules of true faith.
Alphonsus Liguori
He who trusts himself is lost. He who trusts in God can do all things.
Alphonsus Liguori
It is a great mistake, as we have already remarked, to be afraid of Him and to act in His presence like a timid and craven slave trembling with fright before his master.
Alphonsus Liguori
What grieves me most in my past offenses, O my loving God, is not so much the punishment I have deserved, as the displeasure I have given You, Who are worthy of infinite love.
Alphonsus Liguori
Perfect love of God means the complete union of our will with God's.
Alphonsus Liguori
Let us make up for lost time. Let us give to God the time that remains to us.
Alphonsus Liguori
The principal means of acquiring an ardent love of Christ are mental prayer, Communion, mortification, retirement.
Alphonsus Liguori
No, he can never be lost who recommends himself to thee, O Mary.
Alphonsus Liguori
Let us remember the devil labors hard to disturb us at the time of recollection in order to make us abandon it. Let him then who omits mental prayer on account of distractions be persuaded that he gives delight to the devil.
Alphonsus Liguori
So great is the compassion excited in Mary by our misery, and such is the love that she bears us, that she prays constantly, and relaxes not her efforts in our behalf.
Alphonsus Liguori
Your God is ever beside you - indeed, He is even within you.
Alphonsus Liguori
St. Jerome declares that he holds for certain, and has learned from experience, that he will never make a good end who has led a bad life to the very last: 'This I hold, this I have learned by much experience, that his will be an evil end who has always led an evil life.'
Alphonsus Liguori
The servants of Mary are as sure of getting to Paradise as though they were already there. Who are they who are saved and who reign in Heaven? Surely those for whom the Queen of Mercy intercedes ... The clients of Mary will necessarily be saved.
Alphonsus Liguori
Without prayer it is impossible to resist temptations and to keep the commandments.
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
Speak to Him often of your business, your plans, your troubles, your fears - of everything that concerns you.
Alphonsus Liguori
