Alphonsus Liguori
St. Francis Borgia says that he who desires to consecrate himself to God must, in the first place, trample under his feet all regard for what others will say of him. O my God, why do we not ask what Jesus Christ or his holy mother will think of our conduct?
Alphonsus Liguori

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
God loves all those who love him: I love them that love Me.
Alphonsus Liguori

Obedience to a confessor is the most acceptable offering which we can make to God, and the most secure way of doing the divine will.
Alphonsus Liguori
