"When a person truly anchors their heart in faith in God, they gain an inner peace that transcends all worldly storms. This peace is not diminished by the loss of wealth, nor shaken by the torment of illness, nor even feared by the approach of death; for they know that the suffering of this life is temporary and insignificant compared to the eternal glory that will be revealed to us in the future, and their soul has already found its home in the eternal harbor."
"The light of the supernatural (faith) does not extinguish the light of nature (reason), but rather supplements its deficiencies and elevates it to a higher level. Reason guides the human heart to the door of truth, while faith opens that door so that the human heart may see the holy face of God."
— Gabriel de Magalhães
