To throw the Christian into the furnace is to put him into Christ's parlor; for lo! Jesus Christ is walking with him.

To Christ we are to be always coming; upon Him always relying; to His precious blood always looking.

The Church of Christ has been founded by shedding its own blood, not that of others; by enduring outrage, not by inflicting it. Persecutions have made it grow; martyrdoms have crowned it.

It is the duty of every Christian to be Christ to his neighbor.

The psychological equivalent of this is the integration of the collective unconscious which forms an essential part of the individuation process.

The ecclesial communities which have not preserved the valid Episcopate and the genuine and integral substance of the Eucharistic mystery, are not Churches in the proper sense; however, those who are baptized in these communities are, by Baptism, incorporated in Christ and thus are in a certain communion, albeit imperfect, with the Church.
