"It seems than that Mary rightly enjoys ineffable happiness in both body and soul, in her own Son and with Him and through Him...She ought to live in her entirety, who has given birth to the complete and perfect Life of all. She ought to be with Him Whom she carried in her womb, Whom she bore, warmed and nourished: Mary, the Mother of God, the nurse of God, the servant and the follower of God."
