You will not see anyone who is really striving after his advancement who is not given to spiritual reading. And as to him who neglects it, the fact will soon be observed by his progress.

"If I advance, follow me; if I flinch, cut me down; if I fall, avenge me!"
French #counter-revolutionary Henri de Larochejaquelein was from a noble military family. At the age of 20, he led the Vendéens in the fight against the revolutionary republicans.

Peter Miles, raised from the dead by St. Stanislaus of Krakow, Poland, preferred to return to Purgatory rather than to live again upon earth. The celebrated miracle of this resurrection happened in 1070 and is related in the Acta Sanctorum on May 7.
After that, accompanied by the Bishop and a vast multitude, Peter returned to his grave, laid himself down, his body fell to pieces, and his bones resumed the same state in which they had first been found.

We have reason to believe that the #Saint soon obtained the deliverance of his soul from the sufferings of #Purgatory.

The reason which he gives for this preference is that in this mortal life we are exposed to the danger of being lost and incurring eternal damnation.
'I would rather choose a perpetual prison for my lodging than the house of a Huguenot*; and I would prefer a thousand deaths, one after another, to seeing myself bound by #marriage to an enemy of the Church.'

St. Jane Frances de Chantal

*Huguenots were French #Protestants who held to the Reformed, or #Calvinist
