Avoid sloth, the mother of all vices!

Sloth, not ill-will, makes me unjust.

Sloth is the failure to do what needs to be done when it needs to be done - like the kamikaze pilot who flew seventeen missions.

We excuse our sloth under the pretext of difficulty.

I'd love sloth. I wish sloth would come home and visit me once in a while. I don't consider laziness a sin at all.

I know how deeply slothful I am.

Cast away your sloth, your lethargy, your coldness, or whatever interferes with your chaste and pure love for Christ, your soul's husband. Make Him the source, the center, and the circumference of all your soul's range of delight.

Thou seest how sloth wastes the sluggish body, as water is corrupted unless it moves.

It is natural to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes to that siren until she allures us to our death.
