John Henry Newman Quotes

I know the word 'sacrifice.'

The truth is that life is hard and dangerous; that he who seeks his own happiness does not find it; that he who is weak must suffer; that he who demands love will be disappointed; that he who is greedy will not be fed; that he who seeks peace will find strife; that truth is only for the brave; that joy is only for him who does not fear to be alone; that life is only for the one who is not afraid to die.

Rather than allow themselves to be separated from the love of Christ, they submitted cheerfully to every privation, to contumely and disgrace, and to death itself.

The perseverance and the strength and the determination and the sacrifice that so many millions of people have had to endure to form this country is far greater than anything that we can really imagine.

Look at the world, all the suffering... Being under house arrest is the least I can sacrifice.

..the best is only bought at the cost of great pain...or so says the legend

The man who loves with his whole heart truth will love still more he who suffers for truth.

Get off the cross, we need the wood.

No Victory Without Suffering
