The Challenge of Chastity: St. John Mary Vianney
"A pure soul is like a fine pearl. As long as it is hidden in the shell at the bottom of the sea, no one thinks of admiring it. But if you bring it into the sunshine, this pearl will shine and attract all eyes. Thus, the pure soul which is hidden from the eyes of the world, will one day shine before the angels in the sunshine of eternity."
"How little is purity known in the world. How little we value it. What little care we take to preserve it; what little zeal we have in asking for it, since we cannot have it of ourselves."
"Oh God! How many souls does this sin drag down to Hell!"
~ St. John Vianney
