Lives of the Saints

    The saints are like the stars. In His Providence Christ concealsthem in a hidden place that they may not shine before others when they might wish to do so. Yet they are always ready to exchange the quiet of contemplation for the works of mercy as soon as they perceive in their heart the invitation of Christ.-Saint Anthony of Padua
