We are 100 percent responsible for the pursuit of holiness, but at the same time we are 100 percent dependent upon the Holy Spirit to enable us in that pursuit. The pursuit of holiness is not a pull-yourself-up-by-your-own-bootstraps approach to the Christian life. - Jerry Bridges
Catholicism actually resembles a family that survives because even as it aspires to holiness, it understands and can live with sin and imperfection. - Eugene Kennedy
