“Don't let your life be sterile. Be useful. Blaze a trail. Shine forth with the light of your faith and your love. With your apostolic life wipe out the slimy and filthy mark left by the impure sowers of hatred. And light up all the ways of the earth with the fire of Christ that you carry in your heart.”

“Once you decide on your occupation you must immerse yourself in your work. You have to fall in love with your work. Never complain about your job. You must dedicate your life to mastering your skill. That's the secret to success and the key to being regarded honorably.
I do the same thing over and over, improving bit by bit. There is always a yearning to achieve more. Even at my age after decades of work, I don't think I've achieved perfection. But I feel ecstatic all day. When to quit? The job that you've worked so hard for? I've never once hated this job. I fell in love with my work and gave my life to it.”
