“There is a Book from which the learned and the uneducated, the great and the small, the righteous and the sinners can read and learn. It is a book open to all, in which everyone can learn the most sublime theology of God’s attributes—His power, His mercy, His justice, and His love; a book in which, in letters of blood—but not earthly blood—the mystery of God’s eternal love for humanity is written and explained. This book is such a school of wisdom and divine knowledge that the greatest saints of the Church were formed in it, and without it it is impossible to understand or practice any virtue. All the doctrines of the Gospel are summarized and illustrated in this book. All the books of Holy Scripture… are nothing but pages of this book. This book has formed saints, confessors, martyrs, and virgins. What, then, is this book of all sciences and all wisdom that exists in heaven and on earth? It is the Crucified One! Christ Jesus nailed to the Cross!”
