Alessandro Emiliani

"I too live in the hope of having friends in heaven who pray for me and wait to join me in our common homeland."

"We must always remember that this earthly life is only a passage to our true homeland, which is heaven."

"The Madonna has appeared and spoken to many visionaries from many peoples and in the most varied circumstances, like a living person, who promises, announces, praises, exhorts, prophesies, prays, guides and protects from dangers, heals the sick, performs miracles, weeps, invites conversion and penance, and helps us to draw closer to Christ, her Son."

"My sure compass is to walk the path of charity in every circumstance of life."

"The presence of the Holy Spirit in us is the pledge of our future eternal life."

"Only God remains. He is the only rock I can cling to so as not to be overwhelmed by the stormy waves in which I am floating."
