Charity is the queen of virtues. As the pearls are held together by the thread, thus the virtues are held together by charity; as the pearls fall when the thread breaks, thus virtues are lost if charity diminishes.- St. Padre Pio

Saturday is St. Thomas More's feast day as well as my birthday. Since my actual first name is Thomas, I have a special affinity for this great saint. Between the apostle, Thomas Aquinas and Thomas More, it's an embarrassment of riches.
