"The Mass is the sun of Christianity, the soul of faith, the centre of the Catholic religion, the condensation of all that is good and beautiful in the Church of Christ. The Mass is the miracle of miracles, the wonder of wonders. The Mass is the sun of holy religion, which dissipates the cloud and restores serenity to the heavens. For my part I am persuaded that if it were not for the holy Mass the world would have long since tottered from its foundation, crushed beneath the enormous weight of its many accumulated iniquities. At every moment of the day and night, during the year round, this Infinite Victim is immolated on several altars in some part of the world for the salvation of mankind, and hence the pious practice of uniting ourselves and our actions with Jesus upon the altar." ~St. Leonard of Port Maurice
"He remains among us until the end of the world. He dwells on so many altars, though so often offended and profaned." ~ St. Maximilian Kolbe
"When Mass is celebrated, the sanctuary is filled with countless angels who adore the divine victim immolated on the altar." ~St. John Chrysostom
"If we really understood the Mass, we would die of joy." ~ Saint Jean Vianney
"The celebration of Holy Mass is as valuable as the death of Jesus on the cross." ~ Saint Thomas Aquinas
“I have never changed. I have preached and done what the Church has always taught. I have never changed what the Church said in the Council of Trent and at the First Vatican Council. So who has changed? It is the enemy, as Pope St. Pius X said, the enemy who is working within the Church because he wants the Church to be finished with her tradition.” ~(Archbishop Lefebvre, Homily, Venice, April 7, 1980)
