Two great quotes

On my travels, I heard two really great quotes this past week that have stuck with me, so I figured I'd share them.

From a friar as we were talking about Franciscan spirituality: "I am in love with the kenotic Christ as revealed to me by St. Francis."

And, heard in a homily in Buffalo, NY yesterday: "The priest is the father of the poor. He is their advocate; their protector."
