Fulton J. Sheen quotes on pride, jealousy and love

Baloney is flattery laid on so thick it cannot be true, and blarney is flattery so thin we love it.

Hearing nuns' confessions is like being stoned to death with popcorn.

I feel it is time that I also pay tribute to my four writers, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius.

Love is a mutual self-giving that ends in self-recovery.

Pride is an admission of weakness;
it secretly fears all competition and dreads all rivals.

~ Fulton J. Sheen

Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for divine love?
Fulton J. Sheen

The big print giveth, and the fine print taketh away.
Fulton J. Sheen

The proud man counts his newspaper clippings, the humble man his blessings.
Fulton J. Sheen
