More quotes by Matthew Kelly
In fact, the more each person can remove his or her ego from the discussion and focus on the subject matter, the more fruitful the conversation will be for all involved.
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
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.
Matthew Kelly
Freedom is not the ability to do whatever you want. Freedom is the strength of character to do what is good, true, noble, and right.
Matthew Kelly
Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. Hope is one of those things that you can't buy, but that will be freely given to you if you ask. Hope is the one thing people cannot live without. Hope is a thing of beauty.
Matthew Kelly
Discipline is the path to happiness.
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
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
You will learn more from your friends than you ever will from books. Choose your friends wisely
Matthew Kelly
The way we see the world determines the way we live our lives
Matthew Kelly
When you voice your disagreement, begin by talking about what you have in common with the person you are arguing with. Too often we rush to judgment, race to argue, and overlook all the common ground we share.
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
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
On the one hand, we all want to be happy. On the other hand, we all know the things that make us happy. But we don't do those things. Why? Simple. We are too busy. Too busy doing what? Too busy trying to be happy. This is the paradox of happiness that has bewitched our age.
Matthew Kelly
Let your life be guided by greatness
Matthew Kelly
To be truly intimate with another person, is to share every aspect of yourself with that person.
Matthew Kelly
The notion of freedom proclaimed by the modern world is anti-discipline. But true freedom cannot be separated from discipline.
Matthew Kelly
Who you become is infinitely more important than what you do, or what you have.
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
Our essential purpose is to become the best version of ourselves.
