| Quotation | Dom Alexis Presse-"A l'ecole de St. Benoît" ["In the School of St. Benedict"] has some very nice things-a good sense of balance everywhere. But not in his chapter on the office. Defending the Opus Dei on a kind of aristocratic basis-Opus Dei, in Latin, sung is far above what the base ordinary faithful would ordinarily like. All the rest-sentimentalism etc. |
