“60. The use of the Latin language customary in a considerable portion of the Church is a manifest and beautiful sign of unity, as well as an effective antidote for any corruption of doctrine truth.”

“Include extended family as much as possible in your child's life. Their personalities will develop more fully if you give them a variety of figures to interact with. Children are always watching. They watch as we talk and move and extrapolate what we are thinking. They copy strength. They cору what is pleasing and beautiful. They will think as you do, so think virtuous thoughts. A child that sees his father humble himself before God will learn that humbling himself before his parents is natural. Think of your studies, your physical activity, and prayer. If children see this, they will emulate it, and it will come naturally all their lives.”

“Nobody who is alert to beauty, therefore, is without the concept of redemption—of a final transcendence of mortal disorder into a ‘kingdom of ends’. In an age of declining faith art bears enduring witness to the spiritual hunger and immortal longings of our species. Hence aesthetic education matters more today than at any previous period in history.”

“I want to be and to stay Catholic. So why am I required to suppress our seminary? Why am I required to suppress our Sacerdotal Fraternity of Saint Pius X? Why am I required not to perform these ordinations? There is only one reason: to bring me into line with this policy. They want me to lend a hand in this destruction of the Church, to join in this communion which, for the Church, is adultery. I will not be an adulterer. I will Keep my Catholic Faith!
That is why I refuse. I refuse to collaborate in the destruction of the Church. I refuse to collaborate in loss of faith, in the general apostasy. I know perfectly well that if I do not perform these ordinations, if I stop, I shall be given nothing.
Ordination sermon of June 29, 1977”
