"It was fitting that we should have such a high priest: holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, higher than the heavens. He has no need, as did the high priests, to offer sacrifice day after day, first for his own sins and then for those of the people; he did that once for all when he offered himself." ~Hebrews 7:26-27 #Saints #Quotes

"For you I am a bishop, but with you I am a Christian. The first is an office accepted; the second is a gift received. One is danger; the other is safety. If I am happier to be redeemed with you than to be placed over you, then I shall, as the Lord commanded, be more fully your servant." ~St. Augustine of Hippo #Saints #Quotes

"Without priests, we have no Jesus. Without priests, we have no absolution. Without priests, we cannot receive Holy Communion." ~ Mother Teresa of Calcutta #Saints #Quotes

"A priest is one who makes Christ visible. The people see Christ in the saintly priests and they seek even to touch his robes as they did the robes of Christ. Children come to him without fear; non-Catholics give to them a reverence which they rarely give to others. The sure measure by which a priest draws souls to Christ is also the means by which he can drive souls from Christ." ~Venerable Arch. Fulton Sheen #Saints #Quotes

"We must remember that all of us priests, saints or sinners, are not ourselves when we celebrate Holy Mass. We are Christ, who renews on the altar his divine sacrifice of Calvary. In the mystery of the eucharistic sacrifice, in which priests fulfil their principal function, the work of our redemption is continually carried out." ~ St. Josemaria Escriva #Saints #Quotes

"Charity is that with which no man is lost, and without which no man is saved." ~ St. Charles Borromeo #Saints #Quotes
