Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton (1774-1821) was an American Catholic educator and founder of the Sisters of Charity of New York. She was canonized by Paul VI in 1975 and was the first U.S.-born saint.
Afflictions are the steps to heaven.
Do what we can and God will do the rest. What seems so impossible to nature is quite easy to grace.
Experience says it must be and love says let it be.
Faith lifts the staggering soul on one side, hope supports it on the other.
I will go peaceably and firmly to the Catholic Church, for if faith is so important to our salvation I will seek it where true faith first began, seek it among those who received it from God himself.
