[Another instructive quote from Forgotten Truths To Set Faith Afire!]
"Hope has been the sole companion of my life, the greatest aid in doubts,
the strongest assistance in my weakness; hope, but not the hope in men, such as
is thought to bring greater happiness and instead brings greater disaster, but
hope in Christ, supported by the celestial promise that He will strengthen the
weakest of men with a greatness of soul and divine help."
(St. Pius X (Pope) from Vehementor Nos)
