Pride is an admission of weakness it secretly fears all competition and dreads all rivals.
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
Charity is to be measured, not by what one has given away, but by what one has left.
Fulton J. Sheen
God does not love us because we are valuable. We are valuable because God loves us.
Fulton J. Sheen
If you wish to convert anyone to the fullness of the knowledge of Our Lord and of His Mystical Body, then teach him the Rosary. One of two things will happen. Either he will stop saying the Rosary - or he will get the gift of faith.
Fulton J. Sheen
By the mere fact that we do not go forward, we go backward.
Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen
Once you have surrendered yourself, you make yourself receptive. In receiving from God, you are perfected and completed.
Fulton J. Sheen
Hearing is the motion of molecules sound is a wave in the atmosphere solidity is the characteristic of spatial juxtaposition of atoms smell is something given off by a body, rather than something belonging to a body.
Fulton J. Sheen
Unless souls are saved, nothing is saved there can be no world peace unless there is soul peace. World wars are only projections of the conflicts waged inside the souls of men and women, for nothing happens in the external world that has not first happened within a soul.
Fulton J. Sheen
It is not particularly difficult to find thousands who will spend two or three hours a day in exercising, but if you ask them to bend their knees to God in five minutes of prayer they protest that it is too long.
Fulton J. Sheen
Sometimes the only way the good Lord can get into some hearts is to break them.
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
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
But there was no room at the inn the inn is the gathering place of public opinion so often public opinion locks its doors to the King.
Fulton J. Sheen
