"Do not become upset when difficulty comes your way. Laugh in its face and know that you are in the arms of God." ~St. Francis de Sales
What makes life and its beauties so precious and something to be valued is the fact that it isn’t forever. - Fr. James Kubickis, S.J.
I believe in the Dentist kind of love, who for the greater good of his patients would take the infected, decaying tooth off to save the lives of his patients regardless of the initial and temporal pains that may accompany such an act.
"Those who glory in their looks – not in their hearts – dress to please others." Saint Clement of Alexandria
I’ve noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born. ~Ronald Wilson Reagan, New York Times, September 22, 1980
They took that little baby that was making little sounds and moving and kicking, and set it on that table in a cold, stainless steel bowl. Every time I would look over while we were repairing the incision in uterus and finishing the Caesarean, I would see that little person moving in that bowl. And it kicked and moved less and less, of course, as time went on. I can remember going over and looking at the baby when we were done with the surgery and the baby was still alive. You could see the chest was moving and the heart was beating, and the baby would try to take a little breath, and it really hurt inside, and it began to educate me as to what abortion really was. ~Quoted in "Pro-Choice 1990: Skeletons in the Closet"
