"God often achieves his most awesome victories in the humblest ways: a childless old man leaves home without even knowing where he's going; a threatened baby in a basket is set afloat on a river; a shepherd boy armed with only a sling and five smooth stones faces a giant. In the last case, who in their wildest imagination could have foreseen the shepherd boy being crowned king of Israel and thus paving the way for the carpenter who would be the King of Kings." - Scott Hahn

"If you follow the will of God, you know that in spite of all the terrible things that happen to you, you will never lose a final refuge. You know that the foundation of the world is love, so that even when no human being can or will help you, you may go on, trusting in the One that loves you."
— Pope Benedict XVI
