The Master would frequently assert that holiness was less a matter of what one did than of what one allowed to happen Picture Quote #1

Whether confirmation be a sacrament or not, it is no use to dispute; and if it be disputed, it cannot follow that it is not of very great use and holiness Picture Quote #1

When the saint ceases to seek after holiness, purity, righteousness, truth; when he ceases to pray, stops reading the Word and gives way to carnal appetites, then it is that Satan comes Picture Quote #1

Vice and virtue chiefly imply the relation of our actions to men in this world; sin and holiness rather imply their relation to God and the other world Picture Quote #1

We of the age of the machines, having delivered ourselves of nocturnal enemies, now have a dislike of night itself. With lights and ever more lights, we drive the holiness and beauty of night back to the forests and the sea Picture Quote #1

Ambition is a gilded misery, a secret poison, a hidden plague, the engineer of deceit, the mother of hypocrisy, the parent of envy, the original of vices, the moth of holiness, the blinder of hearts, turning medicines into maladies, and remedies into diseases Picture Quote #1

She entered a state where prayer and poetry became one and the everyday world seemed full of holiness and significance Picture Quote #1

Our civilization has fallen out of touch with night. With lights, we drive the holiness and beauty of night back to the forests and the sea; the little villages, the crossroads even, will have none of it. Are modern folk, perhaps, afraid of night? Do they fear that vast serenity, the mystery of infinite space, the austerity of stars? Picture Quote #1

Holiness appeared to me to be of a sweet, pleasant, charming, serene, calm nature; which brought an inexpressible purity, brightness, peacefulness and ravishment to the soul Picture Quote #1

When spiritual friends share their stories, the others listen without working. They rest. There’s nothing to fix, nothing to improve. A spiritual community feels undisturbed quiet as they listen, certainly burdened... but still resting in the knowledge that the life within, the passion for holiness, is indestructible. It needs only to be nourished and released Picture Quote #1

All of our holy fathers knew this and all with one accord teach that perfection in holiness can be achieved only through humility Picture Quote #1

The more afflictions you have been under, the more assistance you have had for this life of holiness Picture Quote #1

Once we repossess a sense of our own holiness, we will recover the sense of the holiness of the world... Only in this way will we once again become aware that our destiny and the destiny of nature are one and the same Picture Quote #1

The world calls for and expects from us simplicity of life, the spirit of prayer, charity towards all, especially towards the lowly and the poor, obedience and humility... Without this mark of holiness, our word will have difficulty in touching the heart of modern man. It risks being vain and sterile Picture Quote #1

If you neglect to instruct children in the way of holiness, will the devil neglect to instruct them in the way of wickedness? No; if you will not teach them to pray, he will to curse, swear, and lie; if ground be uncultivated, weeds will spring Picture Quote #1

When you live in holiness, when you really try to stop sinning, you become braver. You become more courageous, you become a man of your word. You become a man of conviction that you’re not willing to sell out and you’re really a true knight in shining armour Picture Quote #1

Whoever you are, you are human. Wherever you are, you live in the world, which is just waiting for you to notice the holiness in it Picture Quote #1

Conversion is not a repairing of the old building, but it takes all down and erects a new structure. It is not the sewing on a patch of holiness; but, with the true convert, holiness is woven into all his powers, principles and practice Picture Quote #1

We must never settle for harmony at the expense of holiness, nor for peace at the expense of principle Picture Quote #1

Thirsting desires and longings possessed my soul after perfect holiness. God was so precious to my soul that the world with all its enjoyments appeared vile. I had no more value for the favor of men than for pebbles Picture Quote #1

The state of grace is nothing other than purity, and it gives heaven to those who clothe themselves in it. Holiness, therefore, is simply the state of grace purified, illuminated, beautified by the most perfect purity, exempt not only from mortal sin but also from the smallest faults; purity will make saints of you! Everything lies in this! Picture Quote #1

I approach my life haphazardly. Not much holiness and only as much wisdom as I can muster Picture Quote #1
