“If you do not worship God, you worship something, and nine times out of ten it will be yourself. You have a duty to worship God, not because He will be imperfect and unhappy if you do not, but because you will be imperfect and unhappy.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“You will never be happy if your happiness depends on getting solely what you want. Change the focus. Get a new center. Will what God wills, and your joy no man shall take from you.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
"There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be."

“Most people today want a religion which suits the way they live, rather than the one which makes demands upon them. Religion thus becomes a luxury like an opera, not a responsibility like life.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“Before the sin, Satan assures us that it is of no consequence; after the sin, he persuades us that it is unforgivable.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“Prayer begins by talking to God, but it ends by listening to Him. In the face of Absolute Truth, silence is the soul’s language.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“It doesn’t require much time to make us saints. It requires only much love.”

“The more empty the soul is of self, the greater the room in it for God.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“God loves you despite your unworthiness. It is His love which will make you better, rather than your betterment which will make Him love you. Often during the day say: God loves me, and He is on my side, by my side.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“Moral principles do not depend on a majority vote. Wrong is wrong, even if everybody is wrong. Right is right, even if nobody is right.”
