St. Norbert, Bishop and Founder of Norbertines

St. Norbert, Bishop and Founder of Norbertines


“A talkative, over-curious, and restless person is like an oven which is open and exposed on all sides, and which keeps no heat; you will never enjoy the sweetness of a quiet prayer unless you shut your mind to all worldly desires and temporal affairs.” (St. Norbert, Bishop and Founder of the Norbertines)


The Optional Memorial of St. Norbert, Bishop and Martyr (1080 – 1134) is June 6.
