"All the good works in the world are not
equal to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
because they are the works of men;
but the Mass is the work of God.
Martyrdom is nothing in comparison
for it is but the sacrifice of man to God;
but the Mass is the sacrifice of God for man."
- St John Vianney

"A mortal man, a creature
feeds himself, satiates himself,
with his God,
taking him for his daily bread,
his drink ...
O miracle of miracles! ...
O love of loves! ...
O joy of joys!"

Remain humble, remain simple. The more you are so,
the more good you will do." - St John Vianney

such as rising a quarter of an hour sooner, rising
for a little while in the night to pray!" - St John Vianney

into which the soul plunges itself." - St John Vianney
