“Joy is not the same as pleasure or happiness. Joy comes from loving God and neighbor. Pleasure is quick and violent, like a flash of lightning. Joy is steady and abiding, like a fixed star. Pleasure depends on external circumstances, such as money, food, travel, etc. Joy is independent of them, for it comes from a good conscience and love of God.” Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

“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.” Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

“It’s much better to do good in a way that no one knows anything about it.”  Leo Tolstoy
Jesus worked this miracle at the Wedding at Cana so that the bride and bridegroom would get all the credit…

“It is better to give others a piece of your heart than a piece of your mind.” Amish proverb

“Those who do not complain are never pitied.” Jane Austen
