One of Angela's favorite quotes is:""I'm ready for something new and beautiful." (Ryan Ponce)
"My chilled dairy beverage beckons every male to my court, and they affirm, "'Tis superior to thine. Verily, 'tis superior to thine.'"
"No pain no gain. No cross no crown. No gall no glory. No Good Friday no Easter Sunday, period. And that's the way it is." -Fr. John Corapi
"Well done my good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Master's house."
"I have destroyed death, triumphed over the enemy, trampled hell underfoot, bound the strong one, and taken men up to the heights of heaven: I am the Christ. Alleluia!" (Magnificat for Easter Day '09)
"And he departed from our sight that we might return to our heart, and there find Him. For He departed, and behold, He is here." (St Augustine of Hippo)
"Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song." (John Paul II)
"It was when I was happiest that I longed most...The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing to find the place where all the beauty came from." (C.S. Lewis, Till We Have Faces)
"God will look to every soul like its first love because He is its first love." (C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain)
"All healthy men, ancient and modern, Western and Eastern, hold that there is in sex a fury that we cannot afford to inflame; and that a certain mystery must attach to the instinct if it is to continue delicate and sane."(G.K. Chesterton)
"The body, in fact, and only the body, is capable of making visible what is invisible: the spiritual and the divine. It has been created to transfer into the visible reality of the world the mystery hidden from eternity in God, and thus to be a sign of it." Theology of the Body, A19:4
"Man...cannot fully find himself except through a sincere gift of himself." (Gaudium et Spes, 24)
"To say that man is created in the image and likeness of God means that man is called to exist 'for' others, to become a gift." (John Paul II, On the Dignity and Vocation of Women, No.7)
"There is no shame in being a woman. Only women can receive new life into the empty space within. Only women can make a gift of self so that others can receive the gift of their very lives. A woman's body "speaks" the language of receptivity and relationship." - Katrina Zeno, Why Woman
"Woman can only find herself by giving love to others. A woman is strong because of the fact that God entrusts the human being to her, always and in every way...this awareness and this fundamental vocation speak to women of the dignity they recieve from God himself, and this makes them strong and strengthens their vocation." --John Paul II
To a great extent the level of any civilization is the level of its womanhood. When a man loves a woman, he has to become worthy of her. The higher her virtue, the more her character, the more devoted she is to truth, justice, goodness, the more a man has to aspire to be worthy of her. The history of civilization could actually be written in terms of the level of its women. ~Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
"The very structure of her body symbolizes a garden that should be carefully guarded, for the keys of this garden belong to God. It is His property in a sense and is to be kept untouched until He allows the bride-to-be to give the keys to her husband-to-be of what is called, in the Canticles of Canticles, a 'hortus conclusus' ('a closed garden')." -- Alice von Hildebrand
"Eve was not taken out of Adam's head to top him, neither out of his feet to be trampled by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected by him, and near his heart to be loved by him." -St. John Chrysostom
"Love seeks above all intimacy, oneness, insideness with the beloved." -- Peter Kreeft
You breathed your fragrance on me; I drew in breath and now I pant for you. I have tasted you, now I hunger and thirst for more. You touched me, and I burned for your peace. (St. Augustine, Confessions, Bk X)
"Thus says the Lord, 'I will allure her. I will lead her into the desert and speak to her heart. She shall respond there as...Expand for more
in the days of her youth when she came up from the land of Egypt. I will espouse you to me forever. I will espouse you in right and in justice, in love and in mercy. I will espouse you in fidelity, and you shall know the Lord.'" (Hosea 2: 14-20)
"Let now Your Church shine as the Bride that You saw in Your heart as You offered up Your life." (Saviour King)
"Without the Sacrament of Holy Orders, we would not have the Lord. Who put him there in that tabernacle? The priest. Who welcomed your soul at the beginning of your life? The priest. Who feeds your soul and gives it strength for its journey? The priest. Who will prepare it to appear before God, bathing it one last time in the blood of Jesus Christ? The priest, always the priest. And if this soul should happen to die [as a result of sin], who will raise it up, who will restore its calm and peace? Again, the priest...Only in heaven will he fully realize what he is." (St. John Vianney)
"I want to tell you that from this moment I pardon you, and I promise that on arriving in the presence of God you are the first ones for whom I will intercede." Blessed Luis Magana Servin to his executioners
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be a word without meaning. -C.S. Lewis
“Be patient toward all that is unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves...Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer." -Rainer Maria Rilke
"Life is not random. It is the search for the good, the true and the beautiful. In this we find happiness and joy." ~Pope Benedict XVI
Desire to see God, be fearful of losing Him, and find joy in everything that can lead to Him. If you act in this way, you will always live in great peace. - St. Theresa of Avila
The greatest tragedy is to have died and not become a saint. -Anton Peguy
"The Catholic Church is like a thick steak, a glass of red wine, and a good cigar." --G.K. Chesterton
"Nothing good happens after 9pm, and God doesn't listen to prayers after 7am." --Fr. Paul Sullivan
My conversation with Michael 1/31/11:
Michael: "Sean got a red card today, like I did two times."
Angela: "You got a red card???"
Michael: "No. Sean did."
Angela: "Oh, so you didn't get a red card?"
Michael: "No; I did two times."
Angela: "Why did you get two red cards??"
Michael: (shaking his hands and head side to side) "I don't wanna talk about it..."
Angela: "No, seriously. It's okay. I don't care that you got two red cards. I just want to know why." (I did care)
Michael: "Alright. Well, I accidentally -- ACCIDENTALLY -- ... threw paper at someone."
Angela: "What?! How did you accidentally throw paper at someone?? And how did you get a second red card?"
Michael: "I on purpose threw paper at someone."
At this point I fell off the couch laughing.
"I love being poor, because you get to do things that rich people never think about doing; like eating bell peppers for breakfast." --Andrew Ausi
"Valentine's Day at the seminary is like Father's Day at the orphanage." --Brandon Averbeck, seminarian
"To be Queen Elizabeth within a definite area, deciding sales, banquets, labours, and holidays; to be Whitely within a certain area, providing toys, boots, cakes and books; to be Aristotle within a certain area, teaching morals, manners, theology, and hygiene; I can imagine how this can exhaust the mind, but I cannot imagine how it could narrow it. How can it be a large career to tell other people about the Rule of Three, and a small career to tell one's own children about the universe? How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone and narrow to be everything to someone? No, a woman's function is laborious, but because it is gigantic, not because it is minute."
— G.K. Chesterton
"Mass = Love = Poetry" --Fr. John Muir
"It's as if the Catholic Church moved Her toaster from one counter to the next and all the neighbors get upset." --Fr. John Muir, in his interpretation of the secular world's response to the Church's new communion norms.".
