Quotes
- “For Benedict XVI, who with wide eyes and joyous heart climbed as a boy up to the sanctuary of Altötting, the Virgin Mary represents the achieved figure of his personality and his existence. In the Annunciation the Immaculate pronounced the fiat that was to unfold all its strength in the stabat of Calvary and was to find full accomplishment in the mystery of the Assumption. Mary, in fact, tells us all there is to know about cooperating in consent.”
