大聖若瑟，諸德的模範，請為我們求得你靈修生活的精神。在那熱愛而勤奮的靜默中，你達到了聖德的高峰。請你轉求上主，增加我們的信德、望德和愛德；廣賜一切樞德，並沛降聖神七恩。 O Saint Joseph, model of all virtues, obtain for us your interior spirit. In loving and industrious silence, you have reached a very high degree of holiness. Obtain for […]

良心省察是審視靈魂，看看我們有什麼好的地方而感謝主；看看有什麼不好的地方而唾棄它。省察良心是在天主面前，檢討個人的職責，留意我們的靈魂。(RSp, 57) The examination of conscience is a look at the soul to see what is already good, and thank the Lord for it; to see what is bad in […]

生命不是一場遊戲；生命是嚴肅的，它帶來永恆的影響。每人為自己賺得功績，因而建造自己永恆的家。有些人不建造任何東西，他們是在浪費時間。(RSp, 57) Life is not a game; life is serious, it has eternal consequences. Each one works for himself, to build his house in eternity. Some do not build anything; […]

這多麼美好啊！一天的清晨，發現我們所有人都聚集在耶穌腳下，從祂那裡獲得光照，獲得所需要的恩典，與祂一起開始新的一天，然後迅速地去福傳。(RSp, 59) How beautiful it is, in the morning, in time, to find all of us united at Jesus’ feet to receive from him the light, the grace necessary to […]

罪惡是驕傲：驕傲使人類走向毀滅，那些因驕傲而走上歧途的人，毀滅仍在繼續。(RSp, 59) Sin, after all, is pride: from pride came the ruin of humanity, and the ruin continues for those men who put themselves off the road out of pride […]

飛機不會自己飛上天空：需要一些方法才能起飛；我們也是這樣，需要努力才能升天堂。(RSp, 62) The airplane does not rise by itself towards the sky: it takes some means; so it is for us: it takes effort to rise to heaven (RSp, 62).

我們走哪一條路呢？是選擇寬路還是窄路？狹窄的道路是活潑的信德、謹遵奉獻生活的規則、慷慨的福傳工作。這條路雖然狹窄，但它總是被天主的光所照亮。(RSp, 69) Which way do we walk: by the wide or by the narrow way? The narrow way is that of living faith, of religious observance, of generous apostolate: this […]

任何從事出版使徒工作的人都必須尊重聖經，受其啟發並活出它。沒有比在寫作中效法天主更好的了。(RSp, 70) Whoever carries out the apostolate of the edition must hold Scripture in due honour, be inspired by it and live it. One cannot do better than to imitate […]

我們閱讀聖經的時候，不應帶著批判的態度，而是抱持單純的心態。就像兒子不會對父親的信件做語法分析；就像在餐桌上吃麵包時，不會進行化學分析——化學分析是在實驗室做的。(RSp, 71) When we read Scripture, we should not do it with a spirit of criticism, but with simplicity. Like the son who reads his father’s letter, without doing the […]

聖書就像一顆珍貴的珍珠，所有信徒都在尋找它，並小心翼翼地守護著它；信徒的思想常與聖經一致，且按照天主的旨意而生活。(RSp, 75) The Holy Books are like the precious pearl, which all the faithful seek and jealously guard; so that the faithful always conform their thoughts to Sacred Scripture and […]

我們必須在理智、意志、心靈尊敬福音……在信德上以理智尊敬；在服從上以意志尊敬……第三，以心靈來尊敬聖經。(RSp, 75) The veneration that we owe to the Gospel must be of mind, of will, of heart... The veneration of the mind consists especially in faith; the veneration of […]
