Don Bosco said…
1. “Without confidence and love,
there can be no true education. If you want to be loved…you must love
yourselves, and make your children feel that you love them.”
2. “The school was not the end;
it was rather the instrumental means for improving the way of life.”
3. “If one is to do good, he must
have a little courage, be ready for sacrifice, deal affably with all and never
slight anybody. By following this method I have always had significant success,
in fact, marvelous success.”
Particularly to Youth he would
say…
4. “Act today in such a way that
you need not blush tomorrow.”
5. “Do not put off till tomorrow
the good you can do today. You may not have a tomorrow.”
6. “Let us strive to fare well in
this life and in the next.”
7. “Be slow to pass judgment.”
8. “Do you want your companions
to respect you? Always think well of everyone, and be ready to help others. Do
this and you will be happy.”
9. “Run, jump, have all the fun
you want at the right time, but, for heaven’s sake, do not commit sin!” (from
St. Philip Neri).
10. “Servite Domino in laetitia!”
(Serve the Lord joyfully!)
