"We should not be surprised at our imperfections as religious. An oak tree requires many years to reach perfection. It is already a big thing that we are conscious of what we lack. With time we shall arrive. I regard it as a great blessing that our way is traced out for us and that we know the road we must follow."

Jules Chevalier
