Padre Pio
“My past, O Lord, to Your mercy; my present, to Your love; my future to Your providence.”
St. Padre Pio

Mary Engelbreit
“If your ship hasn't come in, swim out to it.”
Mary Engelbreit

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment.”
Rumi, Masnavi i Man'avi, the spiritual couplets of Maula

Mother Teresa
“These are the few ways we can practice humility:

To speak as little as possible of one's self.

To mind one's own business.

Not to want to manage other people's affairs.

To avoid curiosity.

To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.

To pass over the mistakes of others.

To accept insults and injuries.

To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.

To be kind and gentle even under provocation.

Never to stand on one's dignity.

To choose always the hardest.”
Mother Teresa, The Joy in Loving: A Guide to Daily Living
