More quotes by John Vianney
The virtue of obedience makes the will supple... It inspires the courage with which to fulfill the most difficult tasks.
John Vianney
The man of impure speech is a person whose lips are but an opening and a supply pipe which hell uses to vomit its impurities upon the earth.
John Vianney
Private prayer is like straw scattered here and there: If you set it on fire it makes a lot of little flames. But gather these straws into a bundle and light them, and you get a mighty fire, rising like a column into the sky public prayer is like that.
John Vianney
A priest goes to Heaven or a priest goes to Hell with a thousand people behind.
John Vianney
When we receive Holy Communion, we experience something extraordinary - a joy, a fragrance, a well-being that thrills the whole body and causes it to exalt.
John Vianney
The Lord is more anxious to forgive our sins than a woman is to carry her baby out of a burning building.
John Vianney
The pure soul is a beautiful rose, and the Three Divine Persons descend from Heaven to inhale its fragrance.
John Vianney
Our body is a vessel of corruption it is meant for death and for the worms, nothing more! And yet we devote ourselves to satisfying it, rather than to enriching our soul, which is so great that we can conceive nothing greater - no, nothing, nothing!
John Vianney
It is always springtime in the heart that loves God.
John Vianney
I thought a time would come when people would rout me out of Ars with sticks, when the Bishop would suspend me, and I should end my days in prison. I see, however, that I am not worthy of such a grace.
John Vianney
On this path, it is only the first step that counts.
John Vianney
Christian wife! Follow in the footsteps of the ideal of all womanhood, the Blessed Mother of God in joy and in sorrow, she will be your advocate at the throne of her Son.
John Vianney
If you are attached to the things of this earth, you should give alms sufficient to enable you to punish your avarice by depriving yourself of all that is not absolutely necessary for life.
John Vianney
If you invoke the Blessed Virgin when you are tempted, she will come at once to your help, and Satan will leave you.
John Vianney
There were two saints in the desert, who had sewed thorns into all their clothes and we seek for nothing but comfort!
John Vianney
When we have been to Holy Communion, the balm of love envelops the soul as the flower envelops the bee.
John Vianney
Understand this clearly: if you know how to give, you must know how to pay back. . .
John Vianney
All that we do without offering it to God is wasted.
John Vianney
Shall we all be saved? Shall we go to Heaven? Alas, my children, we do not know at all! But I tremble when I see so many souls lost these days. See, they fall into Hell as leaves fall from the trees at the approach of winter.
John Vianney
Sin is the assassin of the soul.
John Vianney
