“You spoil the sacraments of the Church, you tear up the articles of the Faith, you destroy the churches, you break and burn the statues which were set up as memorials, you massacre Christians because they preserve the true Faith. What is this fury? Or what rage or madness consumes you? This faith, which God Almighty, the Son, and the Holy Spirit have revealed, established, elevated to power, and glorified a thousand ways through miracles - you persecute this Faith, you wish to overthrow and destroy it. You are blind, but not because you lack eyes or understanding. Do you believe that you will remain unpunished for it? Or are you unaware that God opposes your unlawful efforts and will not permit you to remain in darkness and error? So that the more you indulge yourselves in crime and sacrilege, the more He will prepare great punishments and anguish for you. As far as I am concerned, to tell you frankly, if I wasn't occupied in the English wars I would have come to see you a long time ago; but if I don't find out that you have reformed yourselves I might leave off [fighting] the English and go against you, so that by iron, if I can't do it any other way, I will eliminate your mad and obscene superstition and remove your heresy or your life; but if you would prefer to return to the Catholic faith and the original Light, then send your ambassadors to me and I will tell them what you need to do; if [on the other hand] you are not willing and if you obstinately resist the spur, remember what damage and offenses you have committed and await me, who will inflict similar upon you with forces human and divine.”
Joan of Arc
“Sometimes in the of world business we need to lie, be greedy, and be a sinner .... But we are doing it the wrong way... to be successful in business we need to tell the truth, be hardworking, and faith in god...”

“Faith is accepting that you don't know, and trusting that God does.”

“life is a dark cave, Jesus is the flash light, the bible is the batteries and your will to turn the flash light on is your faith”

“just when your ready to give up on God he does the unthinkable there's many reasons why you shouldn't give up on God but every time you doubt him he shows you time after time why you got to have faith and believe”

“It’s a pontifex, a bridge to the skies, in fact the Pope himself is called Pontifex Maximus”
Father Mark Montebello
“I remember in Gozo villagers used to say one should have three altars: the Church, the word of God and the matrimonial bed. That showed there was no separation between the physical and the spiritual”
