“If a man finds it very hard to forgive injuries,
let him look at a crucifix, and think that Christ has shed all His Blood for
him, and not only forgave his enemies, but even prayed to his Heavenly Father
to forgive them also.” —Catholic missionary St. Philip Neri (1515-1595), quoted
in Pietro Giacomo Bacci, The Life of
Saint Philip Neri, Apostle of Rome, and Founder of the Congregation of the
Oratory (1847)
