"A saint said that we were
Christ-bearers. It is very true; but we have not enough faith. We do not
comprehend our dignity. When we leave the holy banquet, we are as happy as the
Wise Men would have been, if they could have carried away the Infant Jesus. Take
a vessel full of liquor, and cork it well -- you will keep the liquor as long
as you please. So if you were to keep Our Lord well and recollectedly after
Communion, you would long feel that devouring fire which would inspire your
heart with an inclination to good and a repugnance to evil.”
(St. John Vianney on the Holy Eucharist)
