More quotes by Fulton J. Sheen
It was to a virgin woman that the birth of the Son of God was announced. It was to a fallen woman that his resurrection was announced.
Fulton J. Sheen
Many souls fail to find God because they want a religion which will remake society without remaking themselves.
Fulton J. Sheen
All our anxieties relate to time.
Fulton J. Sheen
Why are those who are notoriously undisciplined and unmoral also most contemptuous of religion and morality? They are trying to solace their own unhappy lives by pulling the happy down to their own abysmal depths.
Fulton J. Sheen
The mind has three operations: the formation of ideas, judgements and reasoning.
Fulton J. Sheen
The greatest love story of all time is contained in a tiny white Host.
Fulton J. Sheen
Calamity, war, famine, plague, death, adversity, disease, injury do not necessarily produce repentance. We may become better in a calamity but it does not necessarily make us repent. The essence of repentance is that we cannot be repentant until we confront our own self righteousness with God's righteousness.
Fulton J. Sheen
The egocentric is always frustrated, simply because the condition of self-perfection is self-surrender. There must be a willingness to die to the lower part of self, before there can be a birth to the nobler.
Fulton J. Sheen
The denial of the right of ownership to a man is a denial of his basic freedom: freedom without property is always incomplete. To be secured - but with no accompanying responsibility - is to be the slave of whatever group provides the security.
Fulton J. Sheen
If you do not live what you believe, you will end up believing what you live.
Fulton J. Sheen
The history of civilization could actually be written in terms of the level of its women.
Fulton J. Sheen
It is the basic principle of Marxism that any attempt to reconcile capital and labor so that they both co-operate in peace and prosperity is a betrayal of communism.
Fulton J. Sheen
As long as the decent people refuse to believe that morality must manifest itself in every sphere of human activity, including the political, they will not meet the challenge of Marxism.
Fulton J. Sheen
Skeptics always want miracles such as stepping down from the Cross, but never the greater miracle of forgiveness.
Fulton J. Sheen
There are angels near you to guide you and protect you, if you would but invoke them. It is not later than we think, it is a bigger world than we think.
Fulton J. Sheen
In vocal prayer we go to God on foot. In meditation we go to God on horseback. In contemplation we go to God in a jet.
Fulton J. Sheen
The refusal to take sides on great moral issues is itself a decision. It is a silent acquiescence to evil. The Tragedy of our time is that those who still believe in honesty lack fire and conviction, while those who believe in dishonesty are full of passionate conviction.
Fulton J. Sheen
Counsel involving right and wrong should never be sought from a man who does not say his prayers.
Fulton J. Sheen
The Christmas gift of peace was the uncoiling of the links of a triple chain that first unites a person with God, then with himself, then with his neighbor.
Fulton J. Sheen
A smile across the aisle of a bus in the morning could save a suicide later in the day.
