“To enjoy interior peace, we must always reserve in our hearts amidst all affairs, as it were, a secret closet, where we are to keep retired within ourselves, and where no business of the world can ever enter.” -St. Antoninus (Fr. Alban Butler prefaces these words with the following remark: “The saint made...this answer, which the author of his life wished to see written in letters of gold:” from Butler’s “Lives of the Saints”, feast of St. Antoninus, May 10.)
