The Strength to Give In
“One way of getting along with people is the ability to give in. Strength of character means the ability to give in to others from motives of love, kindness, and humility, and to do so gracefully, when no sin is involved. It also means the ability to stand on principle, and not to give in, when sin is involved.”
–Lawrence G. Lovasik (American Roman Catholic Priest and Writer, 1913-1986)
The Hidden Power of Kindness
“Have you noticed in your past experience that your kind interpretations have almost always been truer than your harsh ones”

Spread Kindness and Happiness
“Try to make at least one person happy every day. … If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought. Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!”
–Lawrence G. Lovasik (American Roman Catholic Priest and Writer, 1913-1986)
Irritability
“Irritability is immaturity of character. If you are subject to being cross and unpleasant with others for no apparent reason, you need to come face-to-face with the fact that you are thinking too much of yourself. After all, your feelings are not the most important thing in this world.”
–Lawrence G. Lovasik (American Roman Catholic Priest and Writer, 1913-1986)
