The nation doesn’t simply need what we have, it needs what we are. – St. Teresia Benedicta (Edith Stein)
Priests have received a power which God has given neither to angels nor archangels. It was said to them: ‘Whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; whatsoever you shall loose, shall be loosed.’ Temporal rulers have indeed the power of binding, but they can only bind the body. Priests, in contrast, can bind with a bond which pertains to the soul itself and transcends the very heavens. Did [God] not give them all the powers of heaven?… What greater power is there than this? The Father has given all judgment to the Son. And now I see the Son placing all His power in the hands of men. They are raised to this dignity as if they were already gathered up to heaven. – St. John Chrysostom
Where there is no prayer and fasting, there are the demons. – St. Theophan the Recluse
“When you say the ‘Our Father’, God’s ear is next to your lips.” – St. André Bessette
“So your strength is failing you? Why don’t you tell your Mother about it? Mother! Call her with a loud voice.

“As the family goes, so goes the nation and the whole world.” – Pope Saint John Paul II
“God sends us friends to be our firm support in the whirlpool of struggle. In the company of friends, we will find the strength to attain our sublime ideal.” – St. Maximilian Kolbe
