'My children, you listen when you like the preacher; but if the preacher does not suit you, you turn him into ridicule... We must not think so much about the man. It is not the body that we must attend to. Whatever the priest may be, he is still the instrument that the good God makes use of to distribute His holy Word. You pour liquor through a funnel; whether it be made of gold or of copper, if the liquor is good it will still be good.'
~ St John-Baptiste-Marie Vianney, Curé
d'Ars ~
