Genuine saints…
He who believes himself to be a saint is a fool. Genuine saints always look upon themselves as the worst sinners.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)

Willingly suffer a bit for God Who suffered so much for you.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
Everything fades away, but not our gratitude. We shall always pray that God will abundantly bless those who have been so good to us.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
Do you want to do a good deed? Teach the young!
Do you want to perform a holy act? Teach the young!
Do you want to do a holy thing? Teach the young!
Truly, now and for the future, among holy things, this is the holiest.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
I will give you a secret, or rather, a prescription. To enjoy good health and live a long life you need four things:
1) a clear conscience when you go to bed at night, that is, no fear of eternity;
2) moderation in eating;
3) an active life;
4) good companions, that is, fleeing from those who are corrupt.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
