May God bless his soul.

When was he born and when did he die? I didn’t realize he was born in the 19th century.

A treasure trove of quotes from the now and future … St. Fulton Sheen

Not a “Top Ten” list … but 10 I like.

“Patience is power.
Patience is not an absence of action;
rather it is “timing”
it waits on the right time to act,
for the right principles
and in the right way.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“Sometimes the only way the good Lord can get into some hearts is to break them.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“Criticism of others is thus an oblique form of self-commendation. We think we make the picture hang straight on our wall by telling our neighbors that all his pictures are crooked.”
― Fulton J. Sheen, Seven Words of Jesus and Mary: Lessons from Cana and Calvary

“If you don’t behave as you believe, you will end by believing as you behave.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“You must remember to love people and use things, rather than to love things and use people.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“Never forget that there are only two philosophies to rule your life: the one of the cross, which starts with the fast and ends with the feast. The other of Satan, which starts with the feast and ends with the headache.”
― Fulton J. Sheen, Seven Words of Jesus and Mary: Lessons from Cana and Calvary

“The refusal to take sides on great moral issues is itself a decision. It is a silent acquiescence to evil. The Tragedy of our time is that those who still believe in honesty lack fire and conviction, while those who believe in dishonesty are full of passionate conviction.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“Science is not wisdom.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“Whenever man attempts to do what he knows to be the Master’s will, a power will be given him equal to the duty.”
― Fulton J. Sheen, Life of Christ

I also hope his cannonization will proceed. He was amazing and wise.
