“The greatest saints, those richest in grace and virtue will be the most assiduous in praying to the most Blessed Virgin, looking up to her as the perfect model to imitate and as a powerful helper to assist them.”

• Saint Louis Marie de Montfort

• Saint Maximilian Kolbe

“Be not discouraged, but have recourse to Mary in all you necessities. Call her to your assistance, for such is the divine Will that she should help in every kind of need.”

• Saint Basil the Great

“Mary, give me your Heart: so beautiful, so pure, so immaculate; your Heart so full of love and humility that I may be able to receive Jesus in the Bread of Life and love Him as you love Him and serve Him in the distressing guise of the poor.”

• Blessed Mother Teresa

“In trial or difficulty I have recourse to Mother Mary, whose glance alone is enough to dissipate every fear.”

• Saint Therese of Lisieux
