Catholic Wisdom

"The Spirit of the world, which issues from the 'Prince of this world'... is the present and probably last enemy that Christ and His Church will ever have."

--The Venerable Servant of God Fulton J. Sheen, in "Direction the World is Going," Courier-Journal, April 4, 1969.

"The secret of the Grand Inquisitor is that he wears the garb of religion, but he does not believe in God."

--Sheen, again, commenting on Dostoevsky's Grand Inquisitor in The Brothers Karamazov (ch. 5), from the same work quoted above.
