René Voillaume

We should teach the ways of prayer to all, without exception, while taking into account the circumstance of each. Unfortunately there are priests, responsible for the guidance of souls, who have not enough confidence in an ordinary Christian’s capacity for prayer and contemplation.
René Voillaume LBJ (1905–2003)
