"To repair the damage done by our first parents, divine Mercy devised a 'plan of revenge' modeled so to speak, on the plan of our defeat. God willed that at the side of the New Adam there should be a 'New Eve,' Mary. Just as a fallen angel, disguised as a serpent, suggested disobedience to the first Eve, so the good angel, Gabriel, asked obedience of Mary."

Feast of the Martyrdom of St. John the Baptist
“His persecutors had demanded not that he should deny Christ, but only that he should keep silent about the truth. But to endure temporal agonies for the sake of the truth was not a heavy burden for such men as John; rather it was easily borne and even desirable, for he knew eternal joy would be his reward.”
