It is like a Resurrection. [...] I would like to shout to those who ask me if I eat that I eat more than they do, because I am nourished with the Eucharist of the blood and flesh of Jesus. I would like to say that it is they who arrest the fruits of this food within themselves, blocking its effects.”
