Humility And Respectful Obedience

Bishop R. Daniel Conlon, Diocese of Steubenville, Ohio

"You must first convert the prelates by your humility and your respectful obedience. When they see the holy life that you lead and the respect you show them, they themselves will ask you to preach and convert the people; they will bring you your audience better than the privileges for which you clamor and which will lead you into pride."

Saint Francis of Assisi
Legend of Perugia - 115
