“Christ cannot live in us. We don’t permit it… Because we do not have that love which keeps us really united with the Beloved… We Dutchmen have to be doubly on the alert in this matter. We have as our watchword, ‘Don’t exaggerate.’ And therefore we suppress all spontaneity. We don’t call it that. We speak of carefulness.. We will keep our heads cool. There is so much reserve, so much cool calculation that love and sacrifice and courage are totally missing in us.”
Bl. Titus Brandsma
