No man can see God in this life and live because His glory would annihilate our poor, weak human nature.

I must not permit the evil capabilities of human nature to sour my faith in the tremendous good that is possible despite the frailty of that nature.

The reason why the Son of God took upon him our nature, was, the fall of our first parents.

Like Jesus, every human being has enough memories in his past to occupy his time and thoughts continually. It is not the remembrance of these incidents but the reliving of them that creates havoc in our souls.

Nothing in human nature is so God-like as the disposition to do good to our fellow-creatures.

At Baptism, I received grace - that quality that makes me share in the very nature of God.
