“The greatest modern error is not to proclaim that God died, but to believe that the devil has died.”
― Nicolás Gómez Dávila

“The spiritual life goes through alternating phases in which God successively shows and hides himself, makes himself heard and is quiet. Prayer teaches us the subtleties of divine speech. Is God being silent, or are we not hearing him because our interior ear and our intellect are not accustomed to his language? The fruit of silence is learning to discern his voice, even though it always keeps its mystery.”
― Robert Cardinal Sarah

“Knowledge is one thing, virtue is another; good sense is not conscience, refinement is not humility, nor is largeness and justness of view faith. Philosophy, however enlightened, however profound, gives no command over the passions, no influential motives, no vivifying principles. Liberal Education makes not the Christian, not the Catholic, but the gentleman”
― John Henry Newman, The Idea of a University

“Somewhere inside that hurting body, there is something better, something stronger, something real.”
