"The longer we dwell on our misfortunes the greater is their power to harm us."
Voltaire
"Behind every great fortune there is a crime."
Honore de Balzac
"Prejudices are what fools use for reason."
Volaire
Remember, remember...
“Christianity is not stoicism. The Cross does not sanctify us by destroying human feeling. Detachment is not insensibility. Too many ascetics fail to become great saints precisely because their rules and ascetic practices have merely deadened their humanity instead of setting it free to develop richly, in all its capacities, under the influence of grace.” Thomas Merton, 1958
