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
Pride is an admission of weakness it secretly fears all competition and dreads all rivals.
Fulton J. Sheen
All worry is atheism, because it is a want of trust in God.
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
To fall in love means to fall into something... And that something is responsibility.
Fulton J. Sheen
Christianity, unlike any other religion in the world, begins with catastrophe and defeat. Sunshine religions and psychological inspirations collapse in calamity and wither in adversity. But the Life of the Founder of Christianity, having begun with the Cross, ends with the empty tomb and victory.
Fulton J. Sheen
It's impossible to lose your footing when you're on your knees.
Fulton J. Sheen
