More quotes by Saint Francis de Sales
To be pleased at correction and reproofs shows that one loves the virtues which are contrary to those faults for which he is corrected and reproved. And, therefore, it is a great sign of advancement in perfection.
Saint Francis de Sales
Every vocation becomes more agreeable when united with devotion.
Saint Francis de Sales
Hell is full of good intentions and wills.
Saint Francis de Sales
Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections.
Saint Francis de Sales
Consider all the past as nothing, and say, like David: Now I begin to love my God.
Saint Francis de Sales
We are sometimes so busy being good angels that we neglect to be good men and women.
Saint Francis de Sales
Do not fret under such assistance as is needful therein lies one great grace of poverty. It were overambitious to aim at being poor without suffering any inconvenience, in other words, to have the credit of poverty and the convenience of riches.
Saint Francis de Sales
Go in all simplicity do not be anxious to win a quiet mind, and it will be all the quieter. Do not examine so closely into the progress of your soul. Do not crave too much to be perfect, but let your spiritual life beformed by your duties, and by the actions which are called forth by circumstances.
Saint Francis de Sales
The Lord delights in every little step you take.
Saint Francis de Sales
Nothing is more like a wise man than a fool who holds his tongue.
Saint Francis de Sales
The greatest method of praying is to pray the Rosary.
Saint Francis de Sales
For every great temptation there will be many small ones. Wolves and bears are more dangerous than flies, but we are bothered most by flies.
Saint Francis de Sales
If we say a little it is easy to add, but having said too much it is hard to withdraw and never can it be done so quickly as to hinder the harm of our success.
Saint Francis de Sales
One rarely does well what one rarely does.
Saint Francis de Sales
Truly it is a blessed thing to love on earth as we hope to love in Heaven, and to begin that friendship here which is to endure for ever there.
Saint Francis de Sales
Make yourself familiar with the angels and behold them frequently in spirit for without being seen, they are present with you.
Saint Francis de Sales
Every morning prepare your soul for a tranquil day.
Saint Francis de Sales
We do not very often come across opportunities for exercising strength, magnanimity, or magnificence but gentleness, temperance, modesty, and humility, are graces which ought to colour everything we do. There may be virtues of a more exalted mould, but... these are the most continually called for in daily life.
Saint Francis de Sales
In no other action can our Savior be considered more tender or more loving than in this, in which He, as it were, annihilates Himself and reduces Himself to food, that He may penetrate our souls and unite Himself to the hearts of His faithful.
Saint Francis de Sales
A dance is the devil's procession, and he that entereth into a dance, entereth into his possession.
Saint Francis de Sales
