“We don’t desire to stand in the forefront and be applauded for achievements which people in the world look up to. We wish only to be conspicuous by our simplicity and sincerity. Cardinal Gasquete once said about the Carmelites that they were distinguished for their natural and sincere appearance: they are ‘simple and sincere,’ unsophisticated and straightforward in body and soul. I consider this to be the finest thing that can be said about our spiritual attitude and about our apostolate among people.”
Bl. Titus Brandsma
