To tell a woman who is forty, “You look like sixteen,” is baloney. The blarney way of saying it is: “Tell me how old you are, I should like to know at what age women are most beautiful.”
Fulton Sheen (1895–1979) American Catholic archbishop, preacher, televangelist
Life Is Worth Living, s.5 (1957)
Quotations by:
Sheen, Fulton
Bad temper is an indication of a man’s character; every man can be judged by the things which make him mad.
Fulton Sheen (1895–1979) American Catholic archbishop, preacher, televangelist
Love One Another (1944)
America’s greatest enemy is not from without, but from within, and that enemy is hate: hatred of races, peoples, classes and religions. If America ever dies, it will be not through conquest but suicide.
