Catholic Wisdom

"How many courtiers there are who go into the presence of the king a hundred times, not to speak to him or listen to him, but merely to be seen by him, and to show by this assiduity that they are his servants. When, then, you come into the presence of our Lord, speak to Him if you can; if you cannot, remain nevertheless and show yourself to Him, and do not be anxious to do any more."

--Saint Francis de Sales, Maxims and Counsels.
