Sayings of Padre Pio
“The world could go on without the sun, but it could not go on without the Holy Mass.”
He once told one of his spiritual children: “At the centre of your life there must be an altar and a confessional; everything else is of no use.”
“Let us be watchful and not let the evil enemy make his way into our souls and defile the temple of the Holy Spirit… Let us always remember that through baptism we became living temples of God, and every time we turn our souls toward the world, the devil and the flesh, which we renounced at baptism, we profane this holy temple.”
“One act of love made in a time of dryness is worth more than a hundred made in a time of tenderness and consolation.”
