“O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! For thy magnificence is elevated above the heavens…What is man that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man that thou visitest him? Thou hast made him little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honor.”

“The woman’s humanity is realized in the specific ways of a woman. She is a complete human being no less than the man, but according to her own nature. Her sex is not a mere accidental condition that could be abstracted. Her sex, on the contrary, is a reality that fundamentally defines her being and action and corresponds to the specific design of the Creator. Her physical and psychological qualities proclaim clearly what it truly means to be woman.”

“We can find God in his Body, Soul, and Divinity present in all the tabernacles of the world! If we think about it, we are much more fortunate than those who met Jesus on this earth two thousand years ago, because we have God ‘really and substantially’ with us always. It is enough to visit a nearby church. ‘Jerusalem’ is in every church! No room for despair!”
