More quotes by Fulton J. Sheen
When the will loves anything that is below it in dignity, it degrades itself.
Fulton J. Sheen
Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for divine love?
Fulton J. Sheen
The only time laughter is wicked is when it is turned against Him Who gave it.
Fulton J. Sheen
Life is like a cash register, in that every account, every thought, every deed, like every sale, is registered and recorded.
Fulton J. Sheen
By the mere fact that we do not go forward, we go backward.
Fulton J. Sheen
When we try to make everything clear, we make everything confused. If, however, we admit one mysterious thing in the universe, then everything else becomes clear in the light of that. The sun is so bright, so mysterious, that one cannot look at it, and yet in the light of the sun everything else is seen.
Fulton J. Sheen
It is easy to find truth, though it is hard to face it, and harder still to follow it.
Fulton J. Sheen
It takes three to make love, not two: you, your spouse, and God. Without God people only succeed in bringing out the worst in one another. Lovers who have nothing else to do but love each other soon find there is nothing else. Without a central loyalty life is unfinished.
Fulton J. Sheen
Believe the incredible and you can do the impossible.
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
Do mathematics have a relation to reality or are they only a mathematical symbol?
Fulton J. Sheen
If you do not worship God, you worship something, and nine times out of ten it will be yourself. You have a duty to worship God, not because He will be imperfect and unhappy if you do not, but because you will be imperfect and unhappy.
Fulton J. Sheen
If we wish to have the light, we must keep the sun if we wish to keep our forests we must keep our trees if we wish to keep our perfumes, we must keep our flowers- and if we wish to keep our rights, then we must keep our God.
Fulton J. Sheen
I feel it is time that I also pay tribute to my four writers, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Fulton J. Sheen
There are two ways of waking up in the morning. One is to say, 'Good morning, God,' and the other is to say, 'Good God, morning'!
Fulton J. Sheen
Love is a mutual self-giving which ends in self-recovery.
Fulton J. Sheen
The forgiveness of God is one thing, but the proof that we want that forgiveness is the energy we expend to make amends for the wrong.
Fulton J. Sheen
Love was meant to be also a sign, a symbol, a messenger, a telltale of the Divine. Love is a messenger from God saying that every human affection and every ecstasy of love are sparks from the great flame of love that is God.
Fulton J. Sheen
Facts themselves do not give knowledge
Fulton J. Sheen
Remember that every science is based upon an abstraction. An abstraction is taking a point of view or looking at things under a certain aspect or from a particular angle.
Fulton J. Sheen
