Fulton J. Sheen
Image
One becomes more interested in a job of work after the first impulse to drop it has been overcome.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
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.

Truth must be sought at all costs, but separate isolated truths will not do. Truth is like life it has to be taken on its entirety or not at all. . . . We must welcome truth even if it reproaches and inconveniences us -- even if it appears in the place where we thought it could not be found.

The history of civilization could actually be written in terms of the level of its women.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
It's impossible to lose your footing when you're on your knees.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
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
Image
Many souls fail to find God because they want a religion which will remake society without remaking themselves.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
Nothing ever happens in the world that does not happen first inside human hearts.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
Freedom that ignores the transcendent difference between good and evil ends in the denial of freedom itself.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
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
Image
The only time laughter is wicked is when it is turned against Him Who gave it.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
The way not to lead a monotonous life is to live for others.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
Criticism of others is thus an oblique form of self-commendation. We think we make the picture hang straight on our wall by telling our neighbors that all his pictures are crooked.
