QUOTATION: Faith Isn't a Set of Rules

Josemaria Escriva
Christian life can never be reduced to an oppressive set of rules which leave the soul in a state of exasperation and tension. Rather, it accommodates itself to individual circumstances as a glove fits the hand, and it says that, as well as praying and sacrificing ourselves constantly, we should never lose our supernatural outlook as we go about our everyday tasks, be they big or small.

--Josemaria Escriva, Friends of God, 137

QUOTATION: Living

Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati
To live without faith, without a heritage to defend, without battling constantly for truth, is not to live but to "get along"; we must never just "get along".

--Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati
