"Some people give alms that they may be seen, and praised, and admired. Some think that they do not receive thanks enough. That will not do! If you give alms for the world's sake, you are right to complain when you are not acknowledged. But if you do it for God's sake, what does it matter whether you are thanked or not?"

--Saint Jean-Marie Vianney, sermon

- Fr. D.B. Thompson
