Usually this first post is devoted to start your day with a smile. But, in recognition of the Lenten Season and Easter we thought we’d offer some “food for thought” comments. And we turned to an eminent Catholic, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. We think you’ll find these brief one-liners interesting and we’d appreciate your feedback on this posting and any of our other comments–at any time. Thanks for reading.
- Jealousy is the tribute that mediocrity pays to genius.
- Charity can also be measured not by what one gives away but by what one has left.
- Once a man ceases to be of service to a neighbor, he begins to be a burden to him.
- We lose our souls not only but the evil that we do but also by the good we leave undone.
- God does not love us because we are valuable. We are valuable because God loves us.
- Pride is the child of ignorance. Humility is the offspring of knowledge.
- What happens to us is not important, but rather how we react to what happens.
- Help someone in distress and you lighten your own burden; the very act of alleviating the sorrow of another is–at the same time–the lessening of your own burden.
- Moral principles do not depend on a majority vote. Wrong is wrong even if everybody is wrong. And right is right even if nobody is right.
- When you think of the condition the world is in right now you sometimes wish that Noah had missed the boat.
