Text Quotes
I’m not nearly the saint some of my fans imagine and I’m nowhere near the devil my detractors wish, so you simply take both of those with a grain of salt (Saint Quotes)
You cannot be half a saint; you must be a whole saint or no saint at all (Saint Quotes)
I realized that to become a saint one must suffer a great deal, always seek what is best, and forget oneself (Saint Quotes)
Men say I am a saint losing himself in politics. The fact is that I am a politician trying my hardest to become a saint (Saint Quotes)
Today it is not nearly enough to be a saint, but we must have the saintliness demanded by the present moment, a new saintliness, itself also without precedent (Saint Quotes)
The butterfly in a caterpillar: the eagle in an egg; the saint in a selfish human being (Saint Quotes)
Only have enough of little virtues and common fidelities, and you need not mourn because you are neither a hero nor a saint (Saint Quotes)
To be a saint is to be a little out of one’s mind, which is a very good thing to be a little out of from time to time. It is to live a life that is always giving itself away and yet is always full (Saint Quotes)
The test of the life of a saint is not success, but faithfulness in human life as it actually is (Saint Quotes)
The saint and the sinner are twin brothers... one was born but the moment before the other (Saint Quotes)
A few hours of mountain climbing make a blackguard and a saint two rather similar creatures (Saint Quotes)
God’s training ground, where the missionary weapons are found, is the hidden, personal, worshiping life of the saint (Saint Quotes)
The artist knows he must be alone to create; the writer, to work out his thoughts; the musician, to compose; the saint, to pray. But women need solitude in order to find again the true essence of themselves (Saint Quotes)
The only saint is that soul that never weakens, faces everything, and determines to die game (Saint Quotes)
If one is not oneself a sage or saint, the best thing one can do is to study the words of those who were (Saint Quotes)
Give me the life of the boy whose mother is nurse, seamstress, washerwoman, cook, teacher, angel, and saint, all in one, and whose father is guide, exemplar, and friend. No servants to come between. These are the boys who are born to the best fortune (Saint Quotes)
When human beings have been fascinated by the contemplation of their own hearts, the more intricate biological pattern of the female has become a model for the artist, the mystic, and the saint. When mankind turns instead to what can be done, altered, built, invented, in the outer world, all natural properties of men, animals, or metals become handicaps to be altered rather than clues to be followed (Saint Quotes)
Not everyone is born a witch or a saint. Not everyone is born talented, or crooked, or blessed; some are born definite in no particular at all. We are a fountain of shimmering contradictions, most of us. Beautiful in the concept, if we’re lucky, but frequently tedious or regrettable as we flesh ourselves out (Saint Quotes)
Yes, it sucked getting dumped. But wasn’t it better to just be brutally honest? To admit that your feeling for someone is never going to be powerful enough to justify taking up any more of their time? I was doing him a favor, really. Freeing him up for a better opportunity. In fact, I was a practically a saint, if you really thought about it. Exactly (Saint Quotes)
It would be well, perhaps, if we were to spend more of our days and nights without any obstruction between us and the celestial bodies, if the poet did not speak so much from under a roof, or the saint dwell there so long. Birds do not sing in caves, nor do doves cherish their innocence in dovecots (Saint Quotes)
If you find a saint who has no sense of humour, then he is not a saint at all. Impossible. His very seriousness says that he has not achieved. Once you have some inner experiences of your own you become very playful, you become very innocent, childlike (Saint Quotes)
Most of the world’s great souls have been lonely. Loneliness seems to be one price the saint must pay for his saintliness... Always remember: you cannot carry a cross in company. Though a man were surrounded by a vast crowd, his cross is his alone and his carrying of it marks him as a man apart. Society has turned against him; otherwise he would have no cross. No one is a friend to the man with a cross (Saint Quotes)
I find it grotesque when clothes hit you in the face and there’s no room for fault. But I don’t expect to turn things around all by myself. I’m not a saint (Saint Quotes)
The hero is the one who kindles a great light in the world, who sets up blazing torches in the dark streets of life for men to see by. The saint is the man who walks through the dark paths of the world, himself a light (Saint Quotes)
The more I had to act like a saint, the more I felt like being a sinner (Saint Quotes)
To understand a saint, you must hear the devil’s advocate; and the same is true of the artist (Saint Quotes)
A saint is one to be for two when three and you make five and two and cover. A at most. Saint saint a saint (Saint Quotes)
There is only one sin. That is weakness... The only saint is that soul that never weakens, faces everything, and determines to die game (Saint Quotes)
The two great graces essential to a saint in this life are faith and repentance. These are the two wings by which he flies to heaven (Saint Quotes)
When I feed the poor, they call me a saint, but when I ask why the poor are hungry, they call me a communist (Saint Quotes)
