“To withdraw from creatures and repose with Jesus in the tabernacle is my delight; there I can hide myself and seek rest. There I find a life which I cannot describe, a joy which I cannot make others comprehend, a peace such as is found only under the hospitable roof of our best friend.” - St. Ignatius of Loyola
"Every member of the Church must be vigilant in seeing that the sacrament of love shall be at the center of the life of the people of God so that through all the manifestations of worship due him shall be given back ‘love for love’ and truly become the life of our souls." ( Pope John Paul II (Redeemer of Man). - On Eucharistic Adoration
"Jesus told his disciple, 'Behold your mother!' And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home. John, the disciple whom Jesus loved, brought Mary into his home, into his life. Spiritual writers have seen in these words of the Gospel an invitation to all Christians to bring Mary into their lives. Mary certainly wants us to invoke her, to approach her confidently, to appeal to her as our mother.” - St. JosemarĂa Escrivá
“Light is not in the eye, but the eyes see because of it; food is not in the stomach, but it is thanks to food that the body lives; sound is not in the ear, but it is thanks to harmony that the ear hears. In the spiritual order it is the same: what air is to the lungs, prayer is to the soul. As Our Lord said, ‘Without Me, you can do nothing.’ He did not mean that we could do nothing in the natural order without Him, But He meant that we could do nothing in the spiritual order without His grace.” Archbishop Fulton Sheen (Lenten & Easter Inspirations)
