Misli bl. škofa Antona Martina Slomška:

  • Kjer je ljubezen in dobrota, tam je Bog.
  • Nikogar ni dovoljeno sovražiti, razen hudiča in greha.Hočeš druge vneti, moraš sam goreti.
  • Bogastvo ne da modrosti in za denar se poštenje ne kupi.
  • Kdor premoženje izgubi, veliko izgubi, kdor poštenje izgubi, še več izgubi, kdor pa vero izgubi, vse izgubi, njemu ugasne luč sredi noči.
