Saint Quote: Blessed Emilian Kowcz


With the exception of heaven, this is the only place I wish to be. Here we are all the same: Poles, Jews, Ukrainians, Russians. I am the only priest. When I celebrate the liturgy, they pray for all, each one in his own language. Doesn't God understand all languages?

--Father Emilian writing to his children from the concentration camp
