Some quotes from: St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

"The gate of heaven is very low; only the humble can enter it."

“I will go peaceably and firmly to the Catholic Church: for if Faith is so important to our salvation, I will seek it where true Faith first began, seek it among those who received it from God Himself.”
