The Wisdom of the Saints
Adels, Jill Haak
Covering over two thousand years of Church history, this unique anthology presents hundreds of aphoristic saying from the writings and recorded works of both famous and obscure saints. Ranging from the polished literary statements of St. Francis de Sales, patron saint of journalists, to the cry of the martyr on the scaffold, these quotations treat a wide variety of themes such as joy, death, faith, hope, folly, and much more.
