"Be sure that you first preach by the way you live. If you do not, people will notice that you say one thing, but live otherwise, and your words will bring only cynical laughter and a derisive shake of the head." - St. Charles Borromeo

In normal times people would say: He doesn't practice what he preaches, but these are not normal times and Traditional Catholic priests can get away with a lot simply because people are desperate for their services. |

You’re welcome. You are absolutely right, no one wants to risk losing their services. Even lay Traditionalist Catholics are culprit of this as well, they are better talkers than doers. Actions speak louder than words. |

Actions speak louder than words. You have posted some other good quotes elsewhere. Wish they would bring these to the attention of seminarians as well as St Alphonsus de Ligouri's " Dignity and Duties of a Priest". |
