Some, like St. Louis de Montfort and St. Damien of Molokai, both had angry temperaments that they had to conquer. Sister Lucia was known for her \u201crough\u201d temperament and tendency towards impatience with others.<\/p>\n<p>As a young Dorothean nun at Pontevedra (she was known then as Sister Maria das Dores), knowing the Rules for humility and docility regarding menial chores, she struggled with her temperament on more than one occasion. In one story as told by Father Robert Fox in his book\u00a0<em>The Intimate Life of Sister Lucia<\/em>,\u00a0 Lucia was coming down the stairs carrying a mattress and a young novice asked if she needed help. Lucia replied curtly, \u201cIf you do not have anything to do, ask the Mistress of Novices for work.\u201d\u00a0 The young novice was rightly upset and took it to the Mistress of Novices, who told her, \u201cSister, don\u2019t consider Sr. Dores a saint just because Our Lady appeared to her.
