"Grace is even more mysterious and more profound than beauty. Grace is even more arbitrary, more free, more sovereign, more perfectly illogical (outside the realm of logic, without reasons, beyond the scope of every calculation); it is also disturbing, as is everything that is given gratuitously, (that which is given gratuitously is disturbing because it calls our attention to something we had not thought of, that we would never think of, that above all we would not want to think of). The powerfulness of grace. The eternal powerfulness of the eternal Blood, of an eternal Blood, the Blood of Jesus Christ."
quoted by Luigi Giussani, in He is if He Changes, pp.31,32
Amazing! Wonderful! Could never have been written by the hand of man except under the inspiration of grace!
