Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen
All worry is atheism, because it is a want of trust in God.
Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen
Books are the most wonderful friends in the world. When you meet them and pick them up, they are always ready to give you a few ideas. When you put them down, they never get mad when you take them up again, they seem to enrich you all the more.
Fulton J. Sheen
Never measure your generosity by what you give, but rather by what you have left.
Fulton J. Sheen
