人間的禮儀陪伴人靈來到天堂的門口。在這裡須捨棄人間的禮儀，因為最美麗、最圓滿的永恆禮儀將要開始。哦，那時與天主的共融是多麼親密，與天主聖三共度的生活多麼契合。(APD47, 476) The earthly Liturgy accompanies the soul up to the gates of Heaven. It is left here because the most beautiful, most perfect, eternal heavenly Liturgy begins. Oh! what an intimate communion with God, what intimacy of life with the Most Holy Trinity! (APD47, 476).
人間的禮儀是為永恆的禮儀做準備，它是喜樂的……禮儀讓我們品嚐到天上事物的味道，並展現天主的許諾：「參與你主人的福樂吧！」(APD47, 490.491) The Liturgy of down here prepares us for the eternal Liturgy, which is also: joy... The liturgy creates in us a taste for heavenly things and introduces us to the fulfillment of the divine promise: “Take part in the joy of your master” (APD47, 490.491).
所有的苦修和密契主義，以及教理和倫理生活，都包含在禮儀中。禮儀是達至天主的途徑，是為通往永恆之境與無窮喜樂的準備。(APD47, 492) All the ascetical and mystical doctrines, in addition to those dogmatic and moral, are contained in the Liturgy. The Liturgy is the way to possess God, the way and preparation to the eternal vision and everlasting joy (APD47, 492).
天堂需要努力，「天國是以猛力奪取的」。與自己奮鬥到底，抵抗好奇心、不良傾向、驕傲、敏感、自我滿足的懶惰；奮戰到底！因為要奮力應戰，所以必須好好祈禱。(APD47, 537) Paradise requires efforts. “The Kingdom of God has suffered violence”. Do violence to oneself, opposing curiosities, bad tendencies, pride, sensitiveness, facility to give in to laziness; always violence! Violence in making the examination of conscience, so as to pray well (APD47, 537).
困難不會缺少，但新郎與你同在，不要害怕！......你會遇到一些阻礙、一些荊棘，但看看結局吧。這條窄路通向何方呢？它將引人至天鄉，在那裡你將在最純淨的喜樂中永遠找到耶穌。(APD47, 496) Difficulties will not be lacking, but the Bridegroom is with you, do not be afraid!... You will meet with hardships and thorns but look to the end. Where does this narrow way lead? It will lead to that heavenly homeland where you will finally find Jesus forever in the purest joy (APD47, 496).
在聖保祿的生活、作品、書信中認識和默想他；按照他的想法、思考、說話、行動；並求助於他父親般的幫助。(APim, 227) Know and meditate St. Paul in his life, works, letters; so as to think, reason, talk, work like him. And invoke his fatherly assistance (APim, 227).
好好認識聖保祿……認識你們的父親：他的聖善生活、他的使徒工作、他的道理、他在天主面前的能力。認識基督的宗徒、外邦人的導師、教會的司牧、特選之器、福音的宣講者、基督的殉道者。(APim, 228) To know better St. Paul… “Know your Father”: his holy life, his apostolate, his doctrine, his power before God. To know the Apostle of Christ, the Teacher of the gentiles, the Minister of the Church, the Vessel of the election, the Preacher of the gospel, the Martyr of Christ (APim, 228).
你們必須做得更多；不要停在表面，而是要深入禮儀的核心，做更多的事情，與其他人所做的不同；你們要做真正的使徒工作：將人靈帶到聖體前！(APD47, 144) You must do even more; do not stop at the exterior, but penetrate the depths of the Liturgy, do something more, something different from what everyone else is doing and achieve the true apostolate: to bring souls to the Eucharist! (APD47, 144).
聖保祿是個步行者：耶穌導師在他去大馬士革的路上征服了他，之後保祿走上另一條路，從未停下腳步……今日他比過去走得更遠、更廣。他被我們現有342個會院（1960年）的保祿家庭成員帶往各處，會士們愛他、向他祈禱，並宣揚他。(APim, 235) St. Paul walked: the Divine Master conquered him on the road to Damascus, and Paul, after taking the opposite path, did not stop anymore… He walks today more than ever, in every direction, even carried by members of the 342 Pauline houses who love him, pray to him, preach him (APim, 235).
所有喜歡閱讀保祿書信的人都變得堅強。誰讀過聖保祿的書信，就會熟悉他，慢慢地獲得與他相似的精神。(APim, 242) All the souls that have taken pleasure in reading St. Paul became robust souls. He who reads St. Paul and familiarizes himself with him comes to acquire little by little a spirit similar to his (APim, 242).
我們是否在祈禱中效法我們的父親？我們有敬禮聖保祿嗎？如果一個女兒從來沒有和她父親說過一句話，豈不怪哉！(APim, 246) And we, do we imitate our Father in prayer? Are we devoted to St. Paul? It would be strange if a daughter never spoke to her father! (APim, 246).
使用某種方式或另一種方法都無所謂；重要的是有熱忱的心靈，想要將擁有的一切傾注到人們心中。這就是使徒想要做的工作，無論使用什麼工具：印刷、電影、廣播、學校、宣講等等。(Haec Meditare II, 7 , p. 133) It does not matter that one medium or another is used; it matters that there are ardent hearts and souls that want to pour all their fullness into the hearts of people. This is the soul that wants to do the apostolate, whatever means it uses: press, cinema, […]
