Holy Communion is the shortest and safest way to Heaven. There are others: innocence, but that is for little children; penance, but we are afraid of it; generous endurance of trials of life, but when they come we weep and ask to be delivered. The surest, easiest, shortest way is the Eucharist.

— Pope Pius X Quotable Saints (2003)

My hope is in Christ, who strengthens the weakest by His divine help; I can do all in Him who strengthened me!

Life of Pius X (1918)

The Jews are those who profess the Law of Moses; have not received baptism; and do not believe in Jesus Christ.

I was born poor, I have lived poor, I wish to die poor.

Outside the true Church are: Infidels, Jews, heretics, apostates, schismatics, and the excommunicated.

Hope unites me to my God and Him to me.
