More quotes by Fulton J. Sheen
The way not to lead a monotonous life is to live for others.
Fulton J. Sheen
The mark of man is initiative, but the mark of woman is cooperation. Man talks about freedom woman about sympathy, love, sacrifice. Man cooperates with nature woman cooperates with God. Man was called to till the earth, to rule over the earth woman to be the bearer of a life that comes from God.
Fulton J. Sheen
Love is a mutual self-giving which ends in self-recovery.
Fulton J. Sheen
Counsel involving right and wrong should never be sought from a man who does not say his prayers.
Fulton J. Sheen
Obedience to Truth is obedience to Love.
Fulton J. Sheen
Liberty is no heirloom. It requires the daily bread of self-denial, the salt of law and, above all, the backbone of acknowledging responsibility for our deeds.
Fulton J. Sheen
The only time laughter is wicked is when it is turned against Him Who gave it.
Fulton J. Sheen
We can think of Lent as a time to eradicate evil or cultivate virtue, a time to pull up weeds or to plant good seeds. Which is better is clear, for the Christian ideal is always positive rather than negative.
Fulton J. Sheen
Skeptics always want miracles such as stepping down from the Cross, but never the greater miracle of forgiveness.
Fulton J. Sheen
You have a chance to move in far better society than the Joneses. Why worry about keeping up with the Joneses? Keep up with the Angels and you'll be far wiser and happier.
Fulton J. Sheen
Nothing is more destined to create deep-seated anxieties in people than the false assumption that life should be free from anxieties.
Fulton J. Sheen
In every friendship hearts grow and entwine themselves together, so that the two hearts seem to make only one heart with only a common thought. That is why separation is so painful it is not so much two hearts separating, but one being torn asunder.
Fulton J. Sheen
A smile across the aisle of a bus in the morning could save a suicide later in the day.
Fulton J. Sheen
All our anxieties relate to time.
Fulton J. Sheen
No man discovers anything big if he does not make himself small.
Fulton J. Sheen
If I were not a Catholic, and were looking for the true Church in the world today, I would look for the one Church which did not get along well with the world in other words, I would look for the Church which the world hated.
Fulton J. Sheen
Facts themselves do not give knowledge
Fulton J. Sheen
At Cana, [Mary] gave Him as a Savior to sinners on the Cross He gave her as a refuge to sinners.
Fulton J. Sheen
Why is it that any time we speak of temptation we always speak of temptation as something that inclines us to wrong. We have more temptations to become good than we do to become bad.
Fulton J. Sheen
Man is incurably curious.
Fulton J. Sheen
