More quotes by Fulton J. Sheen
It's impossible to lose your footing when you're on your knees.
Fulton J. Sheen
Facts themselves do not give knowledge
Fulton J. Sheen
A smile across the aisle of a bus in the morning could save a suicide later in the day.
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
Atheism, nine times out of ten, is born from the womb of a bad conscience. Disbelief is born of sin, not of reason.
Fulton J. Sheen
Do mathematics have a relation to reality or are they only a mathematical symbol?
Fulton J. Sheen
Modern minds no longer object to the Church because of the way they think, but because of the way they live. They no longer have difficulties with the Creed, but with her Commandments. The heresy of our day is not the heresy of thought, but of action.
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
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
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
God does not love us because we are valuable. We are valuable because God loves us.
Fulton J. Sheen
The way not to lead a monotonous life is to live for others.
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
Education lays hold of what is best in a person, but character lays hold of what is worse. It takes hold of a failing and by very skillful manipulation and training turns it into a perfection.
Fulton J. Sheen
Your unhappiness is not due to your want of a fortune or high position or fame or sufficient vitamins. It is due not to a want of something outside of you, but to a want of something inside you. You were made for perfect happiness. No wonder everything short of God disappoints you.
Fulton J. Sheen
Any book which inspires us to lead a better life is a good book.
Fulton J. Sheen
Each and every one of us, at the end of the journey of life, will come face to face with either one or the other of two faces... And one of them, either the merciful face of Christ or the miserable face of Satan, will say, Mine, mine. May we be Christ's!
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
Being is the soul of every concept, of every judgment and of every reasoning.
Fulton J. Sheen
The mark of man is initiative, but the mark of woman is cooperation. Man talks about freedom woman about sympathy, love, sacrifice. Man cooperates with nature woman cooperates with God. Man was called to till the earth, to rule over the earth woman to be the bearer of a life that comes from God.
