Saintliness is also a temptation.

Born a saint, die a sinner -- born a sinner, die a saint.

God creates out of nothing. Wonderful you say. Yes, to be sure, but he does what is still more wonderful: he makes saints out of sinners.

It is easier to make a saint out of a libertine than out of a prig.

Saints are simply men and women who have fulfilled their natural obligation which is to approach God.

It is well for his peace that the saint goes to his martyrdom. He is spared the sight of the horror of his harvest.
