Time

Think not thy time short in this world, since the world itself is not long. The created world is but a small parenthesis in eternity, and a short interposition, for a time, between such a state of duration as was before it and may be after it.
--Sir Thomas Browne

The Divine Maternity of Our Lady

Love is sufficient of itself; it gives pleasure by itself and because of itself.
It is its own merit, its own reward. Love looks for no cause outside itself, no
effect beyond itself. Its profit lies in the practice. Of all the movements,
sensations and feelings of the soul, love is the only one in which the creature
can respond to the Creator and make some sort of similar return however unequal
though it be. For when God loves, all He desires is to be loved in return. The
sole purpose of His love is to be loved, in the knowledge that those who love
Him are made happy by their love of Him.
-- Saint Bernard of Clairvaux 

Beautiful

“It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” 

-- Blessed André Bessette, soon to be canonized.

Love

We must begin with love, continue with love, and end with love."

--Saint Francis de Sales

If we love God...

If we love God and are faithful to Him, we shall be at peace, and this peace
shall endure.

 --St. Madeleine Sophie Barat
 

The rosary

"The rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of this world, and open on the substance of the next. The power of the rosary is beyond description."

-- Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Our Lady, Queen of the Holy Rosary, pray for us.

Without measure

We should love God because He is God, and the measure of our love should be to
love Him without measure.

--St. Bernard
