Some of my favorite quotes from Fulton Sheen's Good Friday message I just previewed at the
Catholic Information Center (a good thing to show in your church around Good Friday.)


"Bigotry can be Religious."

"The First man who halved or shared the cross of Christ was an African"
Simon of Cyrene was from , Cyrene, Libya, North Africa.
Two of his sons became some of the Church's first Bishops.

"When we get closer to the Cross we find groups more hateful"

"Love cannot kill pain, but love can make it bearable."

"The rain is not to save itself if it's to water the earth. A soldier is not to save himself if he is to save his country (...) No greater love has any man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."
