“25. The soul offers to the Immaculate its own acts of love not as one consigns an object to just any intermediary, but as her property, as her complete and exclusive property, since it understands that the Immaculate offers to Jesus these acts as if they were her own, which means that she offers them without stain, immaculate; Jesus, then, offers them to the Father.”
― St. Maximilian Kolbe, Let Yourself Be Led by the Immaculate

“Prayer is the best weapon we have; it is the key to God's heart. You must speak to Jesus not only with your lips, but with your heart. In fact on certain occasions you should only speak to Him with your heart.”
― Padre Pio, Padre Pio: In My Own Words

“Fear also seizes Him, and His spirit languishes in mortal sadness.”
― St. Padre Pio, The Agony of Jesus
