"’Eat my flesh,’
[Jesus] says, ‘and drink my blood.’ The Lord supplies
us with these intimate nutrients, he delivers over his flesh and
pours
out his blood, and nothing is lacking for the growth of his
children."
-St. Clement of
Alexandria
"Take my advice, and in every Mass
ask
God to make you a great saint.
Does this seem too much? It is
not too much.
Is it not our good Master who declares in the holy gospel
that
for a cup of cold water given out of love for him, he will,
in return give
paradise? How then while offering to God
the blood of his most blessed Son,
should he not give you a hundred heavens,
were there so many? - St Leonard
