Remember that at the hour of death we shall reap what we have sown in life. If we have done good works, we will be happy. Death will be a blessing because it will usher us into Paradise. Otherwise, woe to us! Remorse of conscience and the open jaws of hell will await us. ‘What a man sows, that he will also reap.’ (Galatians 6:8)
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
The music of the young should be listened to with the heart and not with the ears.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
Although He is greatly upset by our offenses, God, in His infinite goodness, puts up with us, spreads a veil over our sins, and waits for us to repent.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
A school without music is a school without a soul, for music aids education. It is a most effective means to obtain discipline, morality, and help good feeling.
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
Be brave, do not be led by what others think or say!
–Saint John Bosco (1815-1888)
