More quotes by 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
There is no one, after God, who loves us as much as this most loving Mother does.
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 principal means of acquiring an ardent love of Christ are mental prayer, Communion, mortification, retirement.
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
Since His delights are to be with you, let yours be found in Him.
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
What is it that renders death terrible? Sin. We must therefore fear sin, not death.
Alphonsus Liguori
The heart of man is, so to speak, the paradise of God.
Alphonsus Liguori
It is just that he should act with reserve towards those who act with reserve towards him. On the contrary, he gives himself entirely to those souls, who, driving from their hearts everything that is not God, and does not lead them to his love, and giving themselves to him without reserve, truly say to him: My God and my all.
Alphonsus Liguori
He who prays most receives most.
Alphonsus Liguori
Speak to Him often of your business, your plans, your troubles, your fears - of everything that concerns you.
Alphonsus Liguori
The sovereigns of the earth do not always grant audience readily on the contrary, the King of Heaven, hidden under the eucharistic veils, is ready to receive anyone.
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
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
True, He is infinite Majesty, but He is also infinite Goodness and infinite Love. There can be no greater Lord than God neither can there be a more ardent lover than He.
Alphonsus Liguori
Happy he that knows Thee, even if he knows nothing else, says St. Augustine. If we knew all the sciences and knew not how to love Jesus Christ, our knowledge shall profit us nothing to eternal life. But if we know how to love Jesus Christ, we shall know all things, and shall be happy for eternity.
Alphonsus Liguori
It is almost certain that excess in eating is the cause of almost all the diseases of the body, but its effects on the soul are even more disastrous.
Alphonsus Liguori
Woe to those who despise devotion to Mary! ... The soul cannot live without having recourse to Mary and recommending itself to her. He falls and is lost who does not have recourse to Mary.
Alphonsus Liguori
