Fidelis of Sigmaringen quotes:

Woe to me if I should prove myself but a halfhearted soldier in the service of my thorn-crowned Captain.

It is because of faith that we exchange the present for the future.

I am sent to you to confute, not to embrace your heresy. The Catholic religion is the faith of all ages, I fear not death. . . Pardon my enemies, O Lord: blinded by passion they know not what they do. Lord Jesus, have mercy on me. Mary, Mother of God, succor me!
