Quote by Amorth Gabriele.

“A la luz de la centralidad de Cristo se conoce el plan de Dios, que creó todas las cosas buenas «por él y para él». Y se conoce la obra de Satanás, el enemigo, el tentador, el acusador, por cuyo influjo entraron en la creación el mal, el dolor, el pecado y la muerte. Y de ahí se desprende el restablecimiento del plan divino, llevado a cabo por Cristo con su sangre”

“Catholic gossip and folklore, as one might term it, contributed to this demonizing legend around the conflict with the Protestants. At Geila in Brabant it was reported that the demons suddenly left all the possessed people, so that they could attend Luther's funeral[...] At St. Medard's Church in Paris the Calvinist iconoclasts allegedly broke all the winfows except that 'in gratitude' they left one which showed a red devil. In several other places, including St. Paul's in London, iconoclastic mobs left only depictions of devils untouched.”

“Your water is in the bottles, and my water is in the bucket, but we are brothers? I am collecting garbage, and you are in the bed, but we are sisters? My fingers are broken, and your hands are so soft, but we are family? Your God is like an angel, and my God is like an evil, but we are equal? My stomach is empty, and your stomach is so big, but we are humans?”
