    “How many voices in our materialist society tell us that happiness is to be found by acquiring as many possessions and luxuries as we can? But this is to make possessions into a false god. Instead of bringing life, they bring death.” - Pope Benedict XVI

    "This past Wednesday I was in part of the hospital that was devoted to people who have memory problems like my father. The people here may have no idea who I am but they light up at the sight of a collar. People who cannot carry on a conversation click “on” and join in prayer as if there were little wrong with them, their faces relaxing in this moment of peace amidst the chaos of illness." - Fr. Valencheck

    "The priest's life is not his own. He does not live it for himself and his personal fulfillment, but for the salvation of souls." - Fr. Richtsteig

    "I am convinced that if we simply follow the liturgical books, say the texts and carry out the gestures properly, in a style continuous with our tradition, the Church’s liturgy has power the capture minds and hearts and transform them.

    I starting forming this conviction before I became a Catholic through my experience of Novus Ordo Masses done in an entirely Roman traditional style, closely following the books.

    The late Msgr. Richard Schuler would eventually articulate to me in words what I was experiencing in the church. "Just do what the Council asked… do what the Church asks."

    Why is worship well executed according to the mind of the Church so effective?

    Christ is the true Actor in the sacred action of the Church’s worship. He makes our hands and voices His own as He raises our petitions and offerings to the Father for His glory and our salvation.

    Christ’s Holy Church has determined the way by which we may have this encounter with mystery in the liturgy, be taken up in the sacred action.

    Pope Benedict addresses this in his highly ignored Sacramentum caritatis. He teaches sacred ministers about ars celebrandi, our purpose and comportment.

    We must learn to get out of His way.

    Although we have the right to our Rite celebrated as the Church desires, liturgy is not about me or us or even you in the pews." - Fr. Zuhlsdorf

    "After celebrating Mass facing the Lord I can report these favorable effects from the priest's point of view:

    1. I don't have to worry about where to look
    2. I don't have to worry about what my face looks like
    3. I can weep at the beauty and wonder of it all without concern
    4. I can worship more freely and fully
    5. I feel more at one with the people of God
    6. I am on a journey to God with the people
    7. I am not the focus of attention
    8. The elevation of the host and the Ecce Agnus Dei have become more of a focus
    9. I feel more part of the great tradition
    10. I can't see who's not paying attention and feel I have to do something to get their attention back." - Fr. Longenecker

    "May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most mysterious and unutterable Name of God be always praised, blessed, loved, adored and glorified in heaven on earth and under the earth, by all the creatures of God, and by the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ in the most Holy Sacrament of the altar. Amen."

    Iota Unum: A Study of Changes in the Catholic Church in the Twentieth Century

    "A complete critique of the crisis, covering the conduct and documents of Vatican II, the priesthood, catechetics, religious orders, feminism, ecumenism, faith, morality, Catholic culture, liturgy, and more from the time of John XXIII to 1985. Romano Amerio (†1997) was professor at the Academy of Lugano, consultant to the Preparatory Commission of Vatican II, and a peritus at the Council —a scholar and an insider!"

    "When I was about 5 I saw a nun walking on the sidewalk across from my home and I told my mother I was going to be like her and mom laughed at me and said,"You're not even Catholic!"

    I did become Catholic- and later on at the age of 64 so did my mom and dad.

    Nuns wearing habits convert souls."

     - Belinda

    "My rector in Denver, when he was a young priest, was eating dinner at his secretary's house, a widow from Sicily. Thinking he was polite he said, 'If you wish you can call me Michael.' She stopped, put her hand on her hip, and, pointing at him with her wooden spoon, said, 'Don't think I call you Father because I think you're better than me! I call you Father to remind you who you're supposed to be and how you're going to be judged by our Lord!' He passes that lesson on to all his seminarians." - Fr. Andrew

    "We must not forget that episcopal conferences have no theological basis, they do not belong to the structure of the Church, as willed by Christ, that cannot be eliminated; they have only a practical, concrete function. [....] No episcopal conference, as such, has a teaching mission; its documents have no weight of their own, save that of their consent by the individual bishops.”
    - The Ratzinger Report

    "When Liturgical Dancers
    Get Raptured..."

    Decalogue Against Temptation

    1. Do not forget that the devil exists.
    2. Do not forget that the devil is a tempter.
    3. Do not forget that the devil is very intelligent and astute.
    4. Be vigilant concerning your eyes and heart. Be strong in spirit and virtue.
    5. Believe firmly in the victory of Christ over the tempter.
    6. Remember that Christ makes you a participant in His victory.
    7. Listen carefully to the word of God.
    8. Be humble and love mortification.
    9. Pray without flagging.
    10. Love the Lord your God and offer worship to Him only.
    - Dionigi Card. Tettamanzi

    Saint Michael the Archangel,
    defend us in battle.
    Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
    May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
    and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host -
    by the Divine Power of God -
    cast into hell, satan and all the evil spirits,
    who roam throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.
    Amen.
