Life is about love. It's about whom you love and whom you hurt. Life's about how you love yourself and how you hurt yourself. Life's about how you love and hurt the people close to you. Life is about how you love and hurt the people who just cross your path for a moment. Life is about love.
Matthew Kelly
Prayer is like a great love. When you start dating the silence can be awkward, but as you grow to know each other you can sit in silence for hours and just being with each other is a great comfort.
Matthew Kelly
Catholicism is not a lifeless set of rules and regulations. Catholicism is a lifestyle. Catholicism is a way of life designed by God to help you become all you can be.
Matthew Kelly
Whether you are sixteen or sixty, the rest of your life is ahead of you. You cannot change one moment of your past, but you can change your whole future. Now is your time.
Matthew Kelly
We don't want to think about our weaknesses. We don't want to talk about them, and we certainly don't want anyone else to point them out. This is a classic sign of mediocrity, and this mediocrity has a firm grip on the Church and humanity at this moment in history.
Matthew Kelly
When you stand still, you reject the struggle, and you refuse to change and grow. Ultimately, you reject fulfillment, happiness, the dance for joy and everything else that is eternally good.
Matthew Kelly
You will learn more from your friends than you ever will from books. Choose your friends wisely
Matthew Kelly
Who you become is infinitely more important than what you do, or what you have.
Matthew Kelly
You cannot be healthy and happy without discipline. If you want to measure the level of happiness in your life, just measure the level of discipline in your life. You will never have more happiness than you have discipline.
Matthew Kelly
Your weaknesses are the key to the unimaginable bigger future that God has envisioned for you. Your strengths are probably already bearing all the fruit they can. They will continue to bear those good fruits in your life, but at some point they will begin to plateau. Your richer, more abundant future is intimately linked to your weaknesses.
Matthew Kelly
The way we see the world determines the way we live our lives
Matthew Kelly
Never pass up an opportunity to speak a kind word of appreciation. There are six billion people on the planet, and 5.9 billion of them go to bed every night starving for one honest word of appreciation.
Matthew Kelly
Our culture places a very high premium on self-expression, but is relatively disinterested in producing selves that are worth expressing.
Matthew Kelly
Anything and anyone that does not help you to become the best version of yourself is too small for you.
Matthew Kelly
The notion of freedom proclaimed by the modern world is anti-discipline. But true freedom cannot be separated from discipline.
Matthew Kelly
Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body and prayer is to the soul.
Matthew Kelly
It has been my experience that nothing changes a person's life more than the discovery of one solitary truth: There is a meaning and purpose to life. More specifically: There is a meaning and purpose to your life.
Matthew Kelly
Let your life be guided by greatness

Superficiality is the curse of the modern world.
Matthew Kelly
The challenge life presents to each of us is to become truly ourselves--not the self we have imagined or fantasized about, not the self that our friends want us to be, not the self our ego would have us be, but the self God has ordained us to be from before we were in our mother's womb.
