"(About Mater Populi Fidelis) I would dare to use the word ‘pitiful.’ It is an insult to God. It’s only God who produces grace in us. But God wants his creatures to collaborate and cooperate in his work. Precisely because He made us free, He wants us to make use of that freedom. And more than that He wants us to merit, He wants us to work. Our Lady at Fatima said there are so many souls who fall into hell because no one prays and makes sacrifices for them. Which means if you pray and make sacrifices you can really save souls. If that’s true for any souls, how much more for the Blessed Virgin Mary? She had been chosen by God to be His mother."
