“It was for me a constant source of hope and happiness to be able to feel that I could in a way shield Our Lord from the hostility which she really meant for Him, and, as it were, take upon myself the heavy cross which He had to bear on account of this soul; and I hoped, too, that I might thereby, perhaps, be helping towards the salvation of that soul itself.” — Gertrud von Le Fort
