You are surprised that the world is losing its grip? That the world is grown old? Don't hold onto the old man, the world; don't refuse to regain your youth in Christ, who says to you: 'The world is passing away; the world is losing its grip; the world is short of breath. Don't fear, your youth shall be renewed as an eagle.'

No one can have God as his father who does not have the Church as his mother.

There never can have been, and never can be, and there never shall be any sin without pride.
