St Peter of Alcantara

From his life: "Once, when someone bewailed in his presence the condition of Christendom, Peter said: The remedy is simple; thou and I must first be what we ought to be; thereby we shall have cured what concerneth ourselves; let each do the same, and all will be well; but the trouble is that we all talk about reforming others without ever reforming ourselves."
