On the Saints...



"In reality, though the saints were of all people always the most sensible, their lives inevitably breathe the fascination of the finest romance.



Whatever their position in life, invariably they understood the language of the soul's best aspirations, and they set out upon their quest of the true and the beautiful like veritable knights and great ladies.



In their wanderings they leave always a trail of mystic glory which weaves into golden threads all the commonplace of their daily existence."


~ +William Cardinal O'Connell
in Saint Gabriel, Passionist
