Fulton J. Sheen

Because God is full of life, I imagine each morning Almighty God says to the sun, "Do it again"; and every evening to the moon and the stars, "Do it again"; and every springtime to the daisies, "Do it again"; and every time a child is born into the world asking for curtain call, that the heart of the God might once more ring out in the heart of the babe.

Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton J. Sheen

Buddha wrote a code which he said would be useful to guide men in darkness, but he never claimed to be the Light of the world.

Burnt by the fires of the world, and already weary with it, Buddha turned to ethics.
