Christ has been the passion of myriads of
saints, of an enormous quantity of martyrs, of little ones as well as of great
ones—Christ living in the Eucharist, but above all Christ in the reality of the
crucifixion. Think, for example, of our great mystics, of Saints Francis of
Assisi, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Jesus, John of the Cross, Paul of the
Cross, Gemma Galgani. Through their lives these saints have been the
historical, spiritual and mystical reproduction of Christ. If you take a relic of
these persons and chemically analyze it, you will find the name of Christ. (The Witness)
