More quotes by Alphonsus Liguori
A true servant of Mary cannot be lost.
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
Your God is ever beside you - indeed, He is even within you.
Alphonsus Liguori
My Jesus! What a lovable contrivance this holy Sacrament was - that You would hide under the appearance of bread to make Yourself loved and to be available for a visit by anyone who desires You!
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
He who prays most receives most.
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
How beautiful she is, Our Lady of compassion! How dear! How utterly unselfish! How filled with joy for Him - and us - in the depths of her own agony and desolation!
Alphonsus Liguori
In the Great Deluge in the days of Noah, nearly all mankind perished, eight persons alone being saved in the Ark. In our days a deluge, not of water but of sins, continually inundates the earth, and out of this deluge very few escape. Scarcely anyone is saved.
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
O God-Man present in this sacrament for me - what a comfort, what a privilege to know I kneel before God! And to think that this God loves me!... Mary, my mother, help me to love him in return
Alphonsus Liguori
Many, however, gives themselves to God, but preserve still in their hearts some attachment to creatures, which prevents them from belonging entirely to God.
Alphonsus Liguori
The heart of man is, so to speak, the paradise of God.
Alphonsus Liguori
Nothing else is required than to act toward God, in the midst of your occupations, as you do, even when busy, toward those who love you and whom you love.
Alphonsus Liguori
Not only is there no need of an intermediary through whom He would want you to speak to Him, but He finds His delight in having you treat with Him personally and in all confidence.
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
To be silent when we are impelled to utter words injurious to God or to our neighbour, is an act of virtue but, to be silent in confessing our sins, is the ruin of the soul.
Alphonsus Liguori
There is no one, after God, who loves us as much as this most loving Mother does.
Alphonsus Liguori
Those who are seeking the true religion will never find it outside the Catholic Church alone, because, in every other religion, if they trace it up to the author, they will find some impostor whose imagination furnished a mass of sophisms and errors
Alphonsus Liguori
But You never reject a repentant and humble heart.
Alphonsus Liguori
