by Archbishop Fulton Sheen
“The better we become, the less conscious we are of our goodness. If
anyone admits to being a saint, he is close to being a devil. Jean Jacques Rousseau believed that of all men, he was the most perfect, but
he had so many cracks in his soul that he abandoned his children after
their birth. The more saintly we become, the less conscious we are of
being holy. A child is cute so long as he does not know he is cute. As
soon as he thinks he is, he turns into a brat. True goodness is
unconscious.”
