Saint Sebastian Cured by Irene, Luca Giordano; 1665

“ALAS! We let everything frighten and discourage us; and oftentimes we are enemies of the Cross, even while professing we love it. We too easily forget that we cannot be companions of the martyrs, unless our hearts have the generosity of the martyrs.”

— Dom Prosper Guéranger, “Saint Sebastian,” The Liturgical Year
