“If [the pray-er of the Rosary] should listenrosarysecret-1 daily to this secret teaching in the depth of his heart, this prayer would kindle in him the desire of heaven, of the glory of God, and the salvation of souls; it would give him a love of the cross and strength to carry it, and from time to time a foretaste of heaven, a certain savor of eternal life.”

                             Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange
