Whether we know it or not, the actions of our daily life are fixing our character for good or for evil. The things you do, the thoughts you think, the words you say are turning you either into a saint or a devil, to be placed at either the right or the left side of the Divine Judge.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
The Holy Hour becomes like an oxygen tank to revive the breath of the Holy Spirit in the midst of the foul and fetid atmosphere of the world.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
By a beautiful paradox of Divine love, God makes His Cross the very means of our salvation and our life. We have slain Him; we have nailed Him there and crucified Him; but the Love in His eternal heart could not be extinguished. He willed to give us the very life we slew; to give us the very Food we destroyed; to nourish us with the very Bread we buried, and the very Blood we poured forth. He made our very crime into a happy fault; He turned a Crucifixion into a Redemption; a Consecration into a Communion; a death into Life Everlasting
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
The refusal to take sides on great moral issues is itself a decision. It is a silent acquiescence to evil. The Tragedy of our time is that those who still believe in honesty lack fire and conviction, while those who believe in dishonesty are full of passionate conviction.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
I wonder maybe if our Lord does not suffer more from our indifference, than He did from the crucifixion.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
Broadmindedness, when it means indifference to right and wrong, eventually ends in a hatred of what is right.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
