" The ROSARY is the most beautiful and the richest of all prayers to the Mediatrix of all Grace.”
“It is the prayer that touches most the heart of the Mother of GOD.”
“Say it each day!”

“There is no more excellent way of praying."
“It is the remedy for all our evils, the root of all our blessings…”
“And that old custom of our forefathers ought to be preserved or else restored, according to which Christian families assemble before a figure of Our Lady and alternately recite the ROSARY.”
