"I chose you, my son, for this simple reason: because you are the poorest, the smallest, the most limited. Humanly speaking, you are the most unprepared. / I chose you because in your life my Adversary had already managed to claim victory. In your existence, I made you experience in advance what I myself will do at the moment of my greatest triumph. / My Adversary will one day believe he has achieved complete victory: over the world, over the Church, over souls. / Only then will I intervene – terrible and victorious – so that his defeat will be all the greater, the more certain he was of having won forever. (18 October 1975)"
