Pope John Paul I

"The priestly vocation is essentially a call to sanctity, in the form that derives from the Sacrament of Holy Orders.Â Sanctity is intimacy with God; it is the imitation of Christ, poor, chaste and humble; it is unreserved love for souls and self-giving to their true good; it is love for the church which is holy and wants us to be holy, because such is the mission that Christ has entrusted to it.Â Each one of you must be holy also in order to help your brothers pursue their vocation to sanctity."

-- Pope John Paul I

Many have, and sometimes it works-but it doesn't feel like jazz when it does. The music simply drifts away into the stratosphere of formal dialectic, beyond our social concerns.”
“Everybody thinks if you do one thing, you can't do something else. So I like the fact that I can be versatile if I want to.”
