emcap Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I want to print a quote to add to our school area (open to the rest of the house) that is Catholic and inspiring. Doesn't have to directly be about religion, just catholic author or saint. Right now I'm thinking of "Peace is the tranquility of order" as that is something I strive to remember and implement in our home and school lives. I would like it to be something I can glance at and it helps me remember what is truly important. So if you have a favorite inspiring or meaningful quote, please share :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieamy Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I've always liked this one by St. Francis of Assisi: "Preach the gospel always, if necessary use words." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrothead Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. - Jesus Lord, you know that I love you - St. Peter Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature" - St. Augustine. If you are what you should be, you will set the whole world on fire. -St. Catherine of Siena As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live. - Pope John Paul II You cannot be half a saint; you must be a whole saint or no saint at all. - St. Therese of Lisieux Edited January 24, 2012 by Parrothead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
