Alphonsus Liguori
It would be the greatest delight of the seraphs to pile up sand on the seashore or to pull weeds in a garden for all eternity, if they found out such was God's will.

Alphonsus Liguori

Woe to him who neglects to recommend himself to Mary, and thus closes the channel of grace!
Alphonsus Liguori
