In the School of Love Quotes

“If other people often disappoint us and cause us to be irritated or angry, it does not mean that others are bad, but that we expect too much from the, because our love is only human.

Mary, as Mother of love, wants to educate us for Christ's Christian, unconditional, strong, tireless love. She is an example”

“Sin is the reality of our lives and of this world. Sin is the dark side, the contrary power, the destructive activity in the world. To triumph over sin would mean to build up our lives, the lives of others, of the family, of the community, of the Church, of the world, without ever making a step backward... The triumph over sin would mean that now a single justified desire would ever be frustrated, that not a single sigh would ever be ignored, that not a single tear would ever fall into the dark abyss of despair, and that not a single hope would ever be betrayed.”

“Blessing has a deep meaning. The Latin expression benedicere means to speak well, to wish well, to think well and so to create a good atmosphere. Mary blesses, which means that she intercedes for us, justifies us and does not judge us before God. Her intercession for us shows her love. She is the Woman clothed with sun, with stars around her head and the moon under her feet, combating Satan. Satan's role is to judge, to accuse, to speak evil, to destroy and to rejoice over damnation.”

“To accept the messages, to accept others and love them the way Mary accepts them, means to take the role of a mother - or to partake in it - in the birth of a new world. There is no other way. The experience of pilgrims and parishioners is truly a new experience of togetherness. All who come to this parish community come to love it as their own, feel like members of the large community - the Church - in which Mary is the MOther and each person a beloved child.”
