“If you have so many defects, why are you surprised to find defects in others?”
― Josemaría Escrivá

“Be firm! Be strong! Be a man! And then … be an angel!”
― Josemaría Escrivá, The Way

“Marry, and you will regret it; don’t marry, you will also regret it; marry or don’t marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world’s foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world’s foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it… Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don’t hang yourself, you’ll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy.”
― Søren Kierkegaard

“Mercy without justice is the mother of dissolution; justice without mercy is cruelty.”
― Thomas Aquinas
