Pope Leo XIII Quote
"Yet, though all this is true, it would be very erroneous to draw the conclusion that in America is to be sought the type of the most desirable status of the Church, or that it would be universally lawful or expedient for State and Church to be, as in America, dissevered and divorced"
Rev. JW Cavanaugh Quotes
- "It happened that mortification, self-restraint, the scourging of desire by the will - all these things are involved in athletic training such as Rockne gave. All these things are equally involved in the making of Men" - Religion is "not something for the sanctimonious and the weak but for full-blooded men. Manliness and religion have gone hand in hand in Notre Dame tradition from Fr. Sorin on down to the present generation"
