How good you are, Jesus! I feel like I'm melting when I speak your name, especially now, in my suffering! Yes, more than ever I am experiencing your infinite goodness, because I see the wonderful embroidery you are creating in my humiliation! But who truly knows your goodness? In order to feel it, it is necessary to receive you as food! When people have nothing to do with each other, they never truly know one another. And you, my Jesus, remain a hidden and unknown God if we do not feed on you!
(Don Dolindo Ruotolo /1882–1970/, notes from youth)
