More quotes by Alphonsus Liguori

Alphonsus Liguori
After the love which we owe Jesus Christ, we must give the chief place in our heart to the love of His Mother Mary.
Alphonsus Liguori

He who desires nothing but God is rich and happy.
Alphonsus Liguori
He who embraces the cross and bears it with patience lightens the weight of the cross. Indeed, the weight itself becomes a consolation for God abounds with grace to all those who carry the cross with good will in order to please him.
Alphonsus Liguori
Let us, at any rate, give heed to suffer joyfully the crosses that God sends us, because they all, if we are saved, will become for us eternal joys. When infirmities, pains, or any adversities afflict us, let us lift up our eyes to heaven and say, One day all these pains will have an end, and after them I hope to enjoy God forever.
Alphonsus Liguori
There is nothing more pleasing to God, than to see a soul who patiently and serenely bears whatever crosses it is sent this is how love is made, by putting lover and loved one on the same level. . . A soul who loves Jesus Christ desires to be treated the way Christ was treated-desires to be poor, despised and humiliated.
Alphonsus Liguori
The sufferings endured for God are the greatest proof of our love for Him.
Alphonsus Liguori
I Love Jesus Christ and that is why I am on fire with the desire to give Him souls, first of all my own, and then an incalculable number of others.
Alphonsus Liguori
Let us read the lives of the saints let us consider the penances which they performed, and blush to be so effeminate and so fearful of mortifying our flesh.
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
Speak to Him often of your business, your plans, your troubles, your fears - of everything that concerns you.
Alphonsus Liguori
What is it that renders death terrible? Sin. We must therefore fear sin, not death.
Alphonsus Liguori
By the law of nature, there is no pleasure in suffering but divine love, when it reigns in a heart, makes it take delight in its sufferings.
Alphonsus Liguori
Your God is ever beside you - indeed, He is even within you.
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
He who trusts himself is lost. He who trusts in God can do all things.
Alphonsus Liguori
The principal means of acquiring an ardent love of Christ are mental prayer, Communion, mortification, retirement.
Alphonsus Liguori
God is displeased at the diffidence of souls who love Him sincerely and whom He Himself loves.
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.
