"For us let it be enough to know ourselves to be in the place where God wants us, and carry on our work, even though it be no more than the work of an ant, infinitesimally small, and with unforeseeable results."
-- Abbé Monchanin

Quote for the Day


"Every man who delights in a multitude of words, even though he says admirable things, is empty within. If you love truth, be a lover of silence."
