A Quote by Charles Maurice de Talleyrand

Wherever there's trouble, look for a priest. — © Charles Maurice de Talleyrand
Wherever there's trouble, look for a priest.
You look at what happened to the priest over the weekend in Paris, where his throat was cut, 85-year-old, beloved Catholic priest. You look at what happened in Nice, France, a couple of weeks ago. I would say, you gotta take a look that, because something is going on, and it's not good.
I would say, we have had a lot of problems with radical Islamic terrorism, that's what I'd say. We have had a lot of problems where you look at San Bernardino, you look at Orlando, you look at the World Trade Center, you look at so many different things. You look at what happened to the priest over the weekend in Paris, where his throat was cut, 85-year-old, beloved Catholic priest. You look at what happened in Nice, France.
Look, when I got in trouble in school I got in trouble at home. Now when kids get in trouble at school, the teacher gets in trouble. So the families are important.
The trouble with being a priest was that you eventually had to take the advice you gave to others.
I only go to mass when somebody asks me, but when I get in trouble I call for a priest.
Wherever you can look - wherever there's a fight, so hungry people can eat, I'll be there.
The priest is not made. He must be born a priest; must inherit his office. I refer to the new birth-the birth of water and the Spirit. Thus all Christians must became priests, children of God and co-heirs with Christ the Most High Priest.
Better never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you; for you only make your trouble double trouble when you do.
Wherever I go, I'm followed by trouble.
Life is trouble. Only death is not. To be alive is to undo your belt and *look* for trouble.
Boss, life is trouble. Only death is not. To be alive is to undo your belt and look for trouble.
The world looks to the priest, because it looks to Jesus! No one can see Christ; but everyone sees the priest, and through him they wish to catch a glimpse of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur and dignity of the priest!
The Catholic priest, from the moment he becomes a priest, is a sworn officer of the pope.
I didn't want to be a priest. I wanted to do the work that priests do, and that required becoming a priest.
Wherever snow falls, or water flows, or birds fly, wherever day and night meet in twilight, wherever the blue heaven is hung by clouds, or sown with stars, wherever are forms with transparent boundaries, wherever are outlets into celestial space, wherever is danger, and awe, and love, there is Beauty, plenteous as rain, shed for thee, and though thou shouldest walk the world over, thou shalt not be able to find a condition inopportune or ignoble.
As a husband, father and public servant, I'm thankful for the counsel and wisdom of my older brothers - Bill, who was a priest, and Kevin, who is a priest.
