SEPTEMBER 22 – BLESSED JOSEPHINE OF THE PURIFICATION
“Their martyrs have gone ahead of us, they tower over us like giants. If we are not capable of following them in action, let us follow them in affection; if not in glory, then certainly in joy and gladness; if not in merit, then in desire; if not in suffering, then in fellow feeling; if not in excellence, then in our close relationship with them.”
Sermon 273, 1.2.7.9.
