Saint Quote o' the Day
"We care for thousands of lepers. They are among the most unwanted, unloved, & neglected people. The other day one of our sisters was washing a leper covered with sores. A Muslim holy man was present, standing close to her. He said, 'All these years I have believed that Jesus Christ is a prophet. Today I believe that Jesus Christ is God since He has been oble to give such joy to this sister, so that she can do her work with so much love.'"
—Saint Teresa of Calcutta, M.C. (1910-1997, feast: 5 September)

Archbishop Sheen Quote o' the Day
"The fact the enemies of God must face is that modern civilization has conquered the world, but in doing so has lost its soul. And in losing its soul it will lose the very world it gained… And as religion fades so will freedom, for only where the spirit of God is, is there liberty."
—Venerable Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
