Prayer
Copy Quote

Personality
Pride
Self
Copy Quote
Grace does not work like a penny in a slot machine. Grace will move you only when you want it to move you, and only when you let it move you. The supernatural order supposes the freedom of the natural order, but it does not destroy it.

Grace

Fulton J. Sheen / Televangelist
Average
Confused
Tolerance
Copy Quote
Modern man has so long preached a doctrine of false tolerance; he has so long believed that right and wrong were only differences in a point of view, that now when evil works itself out in practice he is paralyzed to do anything against it.
Fulton J. Sheen / Televangelist
Men
Practice
Views
Copy Quote
Confiscation in any form is an unhealthy solution for a real disease. It amounts to telling men that because they are economically crippled, they must abandon all efforts to get well and allow the state to provide them with free wheelchairs.
Fulton J. Sheen / Televangelist
Men
Get Well
Real
Copy Quote
Pride is the king of vices...it is the first of the pallbearers of the soul...other vices destroy only their opposite virtues, as wantonness destroys chastity; greed destroys temperance; anger destroys gentleness; but pride destroys all virtues.

Friends
Book
Giving
Ideas
Copy Quote
The denial of the right of ownership to a man is a denial of his basic freedom: freedom without property is always incomplete. To be "secured" - but with no accompanying responsibility - is to be the slave of whatever group provides the security.
Fulton J. Sheen / Televangelist
Wisdom
Men
Responsibility
Copy Quote
In every friendship hearts grow and entwine themselves together, so that the two hearts seem to make only one heart with only a common thought. That is why separation is so painful; it is not so much two hearts separating, but one being torn asunder.

Inspiring
Divorce
