"He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you could live amid in justice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust."
St. Thomas Aquinas

"America, it is said, is suffering from intolerance - it is not. It is suffering from tolerance. Tolerance of right and wrong, truth and error, virtue and evil, Christ and chaos. Our country is not nearly so overrun with the bigoted as it is overrun with the broadminded."
Ven. Fulton J. Sheen

"The Heart of Jesus, the source and symbol of infinite love, is the foundation of the Christian religion and the center of all true piety. It is the Heart of Jesus that has given us life, and it is the Heart of Jesus that sustains us in our daily struggles. Let us then, with deep devotion, venerate the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and let us strive to imitate the love and mercy that it embodies."
Pope Pius XI, Miserentissimus Redemptor

"There are two alternatives for society: Catholicism or chaos. If it is not chaos, if Christ is not to abandon us, then Christ must reign and if He is to reign He can only do so if we, who claim to be His disciples, restore Him to His rightful throne."
Hilaire Belloc

"A father's love for his children is like the love of God for his people. It is patient, kind, and sacrificial."
St. John of Damascus, Exact Exposition of the Orthodox Faith, Book II

“The nearer Christ comes to a heart, the more it becomes conscious of its guilt; it will then either ask for His mercy and find peace, or else it will turn against Him because it is not yet ready to give up its sinfulness. Thus He will separate the good from the bad, the wheat from the chaff. Man's reaction to this Divine Presence will be the test: either it will call out all the opposition of egotistic natures, or else galvanize them into a regeneration and a resurrection.”
Ven. Fulton J. Sheen, Life of Christ

"The declared enemies of God and His Church, heretics and schismatics, must be criticized as much as possible, as long as truth is not denied. It is a work of charity to shout: 'Here is the wolf!' when it enters the flock or anywhere else."
St. Francis de Sales, Introduction to the Devout Life, Part III, Chapter 29

"In such a crux there remains the historical truth: that this our European structure, built upon the noble foundations of classical antiquity, was formed through, exists by, is consonant to, and will stand only in the mold of, the Catholic Church. Europe will return to the Faith, or she will perish."
Hilaire Belloc, Europe and the Faith

"We have often considered and admired the noble gifts of your nation which enable the American people to be alive to every good work which promotes the good of humanity and the splendor of civilization."
Pope Leo XIII, Testem Benevolentiae Nostrae

"If the enemies of the truth never have enough of blaspheming our Benefactor, we must be all the more tireless in praising the God of all."
St. John Chrysostom, Adversus Iudaeos

"In times of desolation, God conceals Himself from us so that we can discover for ourselves what we are without Him."
St. Margaret of Cortona

"Who is there so demented, who, though not able to overtake, does not at least earnestly desire to follow those whom no force could deter from defending the faith of their ancestors, no threats, no blandishments, not life, not death, not the palace, not the Imperial Guards, not the Emperor, not the empire itself, not men, not demons?— whom, I say, as a recompense for their steadfastness in adhering to religious antiquity, the Lord counted worthy of so great a reward, that by their instrumentality He restored churches which had been destroyed, quickened with new life peoples who were spiritually dead, replaced on the heads of priests the crowns which had been torn from them, washed out those abominable, I will not say letters, but blotches of novel impiety, with a fountain of believing tears, which God opened in the hearts of the bishops?"
St. Vincent of Lérins, Commonitory for the Antiquity and Universality of the Catholic Faith Against the Profane Novelties of All Heresies V.xiii

“This is no time for believing everyone, believe only those whom you see modeling their lives on the life of Christ. Endeavor always to have a good conscience; practice humility; despise all worldly things; and believe firmly in the teaching of our Holy Mother Church."
St. Teresa of Avila, The Way of Perfection

“People hate the truth for the sake of whatever it is that they love more than the truth. They love truth when it shines warmly on them and hate it when it rebukes them.”
St. Augustine of Hippo, Confessions, Book 10, ch. 23

"Those rabid dogs barking against Christ; let their followers learn—those who think that the church has had no philosophers, no orators, no men of learning; let them learn the number and quality of the men who founded, built, and adorned the church and let them stop accusing our faith of such rustic simplicity, and recognize instead their own ignorance."

St. Jerome, On Illustrious Men, Preface, paragraph 7

“There is no evil to be faced that Christ does not face with us. There is no enemy that Christ has not already conquered. There is no cross to bear that Christ has not already born for us, and does not now bear with us.”
