You may have to wait longer than you would like, you may have to bear privations; but, bear and forebear. Have confidence in the Providence that so far has never failed us. The way is not yet clear. Grope along slowly. Do not press matters; be patient, be trustful.

— Théodore Guérin

More quotes by Théodore Guérin

We are not called upon to do all the good possible, but only that which we can do.

At each step we can admire the grandeur, the power, the goodness of God. How bountifully He provides for all our wants -- I would even say for our pleasures!

Woman in this country is only yet one fourth of the family. I hope that, through the influence of religion and education, she will eventually become at least one half the "better half."

If this small community of settlers ever settles permanently, it will be in the name of the Cross. This is what gives me confidence and hope, even when everything seems to prove otherwise.

Our hope is Divine Providence, which has protected us so far and which will provide in some way for our future needs as well.
