Text Quotes
Our personal dispositions are as windowpanes through which we see the world either as rosy or dull. The way we color the glasses we wear is the way the world seems to us (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Why is it that any time we speak of temptation we always speak of temptation as something that inclines us to wrong. We have more temptations to become good than we do to become bad (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Wars come from egotism and selfishness. Every macrocosmic or world war has its origin in microcosmic wars going on inside millions and millions of individuals (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
The science of a religious man must be scientific; the religion of a scientific man must be religious (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Every moment comes to you pregnant with divine purpose.... Once it leaves your hands and your power to do with it as you please, it plunges into eternity, to remain forever what you made it (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Criticism of others is thus an oblique form of self-commendation. We think we make the picture hang straight on our wall by telling our neighbors that all his pictures are crooked (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Why are those who are notoriously undisciplined and unmoral also most contemptuous of religion and morality? They are trying to solace their own unhappy lives by pulling the happy down to their own abysmal depths (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
The egocentric is always frustrated, simply because the condition of self-perfection is self-surrender. There must be a willingness to die to the lower part of self, before there can be a birth to the nobler (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
It takes three to make love, not two: you, your spouse, and God. Without God people only succeed in bringing out the worst in one another. Lovers who have nothing else to do but love each other soon find there is nothing else. Without a central loyalty life is unfinished (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Once you have surrendered yourself, you make yourself receptive. In receiving from God, you are perfected and completed (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
When a man loves a woman, he has to become worthy of her. The higher her virtue, the more noble her character, the more devoted she is to truth, justice, goodness, the more a man has to aspire to be worthy of her. The history of civilization could actually be written in terms of the level of its women (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
We are all born with the power of speech, but we need grammar. Conscience, too, needs Revelation (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Love is the key to the mystery. Love by its very nature is not selfish, but generous. It seeks not its own, but the good of others. The measure of love is not the pleasure it gives-that is the way the world judges it-but the joy and peace it can purchase for others (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
The refusal to take sides on great moral issues is itself a decision. It is a silent acquiescence to evil. The Tragedy of our time is that those who still believe in honesty lack fire and conviction, while those who believe in dishonesty are full of passionate conviction (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Christianity, unlike any other religion in the world, begins with catastrophe and defeat. Sunshine religions and psychological inspirations collapse in calamity and wither in adversity. But the Life of the Founder of Christianity, having begun with the Cross, ends with the empty tomb and victory (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
There are two ways of waking up in the morning. One is to say, ‘Good morning, God,’ and the other is to say, ‘Good God, morning’! (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
In every friendship hearts grow and entwine themselves together, so that the two hearts seem to make only one heart with only a common thought. That is why separation is so painful; it is not so much two hearts separating, but one being torn asunder (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
If you do not worship God, you worship something, and nine times out of ten it will be yourself. You have a duty to worship God, not because He will be imperfect and unhappy if you do not, but because you will be imperfect and unhappy (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Live each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance toward the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point. So climb slowly, enjoying each passing moment; and then the view from the summit will serve a more rewarding climax for your journey (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
God does not love us because we are valuable. We are valuable because God loves us (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Grace does not work like a penny in a slot machine. Grace will move you only when you want it to move you, and only when you let it move you. The supernatural order supposes the freedom of the natural order, but it does not destroy it (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
There are 200 million poor in the world who would gladly take the vow of poverty if they could eat, dress and have a home like I do (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
The only way to win audiences is to tell people about the life and death of Christ. Every other approach is a waste (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
So the divine love is sacrificial love. Love does not mean to have and to own and to possess. It means to be had and to be owned and to be possessed. It is not a circle circumscribed by self, it is arms outstretched to embrace all humanity within its grasp (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Humility is dependence on God as pride is independence of Him. The humble soul is always the thankful soul (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Sex has become one of the most discussed subjects of modern times. The Victorians pretended it did not exist; the moderns pretend nothing else exists (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
The wicked fear the good, because the good are a constant reproach to their consciences. The ungodly like religion in the same way that they like lions, either dead or behind bars; they fear religion when it breaks loose and begins to challenge their consciences (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Fasting detaches you from this world. Prayer reattaches you to the next world (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Our happiest times are those in which we forget ourselves, usually in being kind to someone else. That tiny moment of self-abdication is an act of true humility: the man who loses himself finds himself and finds his happiness (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
Prayer begins by talking to God, but it ends by listening to Him. In the face of Absolute Truth, silence is the soul’s language (Fulton J Sheen Quotes)
