Fulton J. SheenNever forget that there are only two philosophies to rule your life: the one of the cross, which starts with the fast and ends with the feast. The other of Satan, which starts with the feast and ends with the headache.
About This Quote
The philosophy of the cross is a spiritual, supernatural way of life. It can be a difficult way to live at times because it requires us to be more spiritual and less materialistic. Unfortunately, this is something that many people struggle with. The philosophy of the cross means that we should never forget that there are only two philosophies to rule our life: the one of the cross, which starts with the fast and ends with the feast; and the other of Satan, which starts with the feast and ends with the headache.
Many people want to live their lives in a way where they get all of their needs met and don’t have anything weighing them down. They want to build wealth and be wealthy while still having plenty of time for fun and relaxation. For these people, there is only one philosophy that will bring success: Satan’s way of life.
