Samuel

“Far from me, heretics
Whom the Church has condemned
With all their fancy practices
And their sophisticated books;
Far from me, Calvinism!
Far from me, Jansenism!
I serve God with my whole heart,
It is my glory and my joy.”
― Louis de Montfort

“By the light which the Holy Ghost will give you by His dear Spouse, Mary, you will understand your own evil, your corruption, and your incapacity for anything good, which is not God’s free gift to us, either as Author of nature or of grace. In consequence of this knowledge, you will despise yourself. You will only think of yourself with horror. You will regard yourself as a snail, that spoils everything with its slime; or a toad, that poisons everything with its venom; or as a spiteful serpent, only seeking to deceive. In other words, the humble Mary will communicate to you a portion of her profound humility, which will make you despise yourself, despise nobody else, but love to be despised yourself.”
― Louis de Montfort

“Jesus Christ came to blind those who saw clearly, and to give sight to the blind; to heal the sick, and leave the healthy to die; to call to repentance, and to justify sinners, and to leave the righteous in their sins; to fill the needy, and leave the rich empty.”
― Blaise Pascal, Pensées

“It has been an established custom in the Church that the more devout a person is, the more prompt he is to oppose innovations”
