More quotes by Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen
All our anxieties relate to time.
Fulton J. Sheen
Why is it that any time we speak of temptation we always speak of temptation as something that inclines us to wrong. We have more temptations to become good than we do to become bad.
Fulton J. Sheen
The way not to lead a monotonous life is to live for others.
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
It is easy to find truth, though it is hard to face it, and harder still to follow it.
Fulton J. Sheen
At Cana, [Mary] gave Him as a Savior to sinners on the Cross He gave her as a refuge to sinners.
Fulton J. Sheen
There are ultimately only two possible adjustments to life one is to suit our lives to principles the other is to suit principles to our lives. If we do not live as we think, we soon begin to think as we live. The method of adjusting moral principles to the way men live is just a perversion of the order of things.
Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen
The only way to win audiences is to tell people about the life and death of Christ. Every other approach is a waste.
Fulton J. Sheen
Most of us do not like to look inside ourselves for the same reason we don't like to open a letter that has bad news.
Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen
The old liberal rebelled against taxation without responsibility, the new liberal wants the taxation as a handout without responsibility.
Fulton J. Sheen
Baloney is flattery laid on so thick it cannot be true, and blarney is flattery so thin we love it.
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
Confiscation in any form is an unhealthy solution for a real disease. It amounts to telling men that because they are economically crippled, they must abandon all efforts to get well and allow the state to provide them with free wheelchairs.
Fulton J. Sheen
When we die to something, something comes alive within us. If we die to self, charity comes alive if we die to pride, service comes alive if we die to lust, reverence for personality comes alive if we die to anger, love comes alive.
Fulton J. Sheen
There are 200 million poor in the world who would gladly take the vow of poverty if they could eat, dress and have a home like I do
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
Counsel involving right and wrong should never be sought from a man who does not say his prayers.
Fulton J. Sheen
