Wisdom of Saint Jean-Marie Vianney

"Some people are very careful about cleaning their shoes, but they think nothing about leaving their crucifix undusted."

--Saint Jean-Marie Vianney, On The Example given to Children.

I think you know this truth by experience: children learn from their parents far more by what they do than what they say. These little ones are being instructed on what is truly important, what has real priority, in the things that fill the time of the adults around them, most especially their parents.

- Fr. D.B. Thompson
