John Vianney is one of our favourite saints. Actually he is Sophie's confirmation saint. Oh how I wish I could whole heartedly echo this quote! I imagine it would be more than a little mortification carrying the basket up and down that rocky cliff. Beautiful painting!
Sue, I cannot echo this quote... but like you, I want to. It is a goal. Actually my goal is to be able to USE the mortifications and offer them up... but to be able to honestly say that I LIKE them? Nope; I am not there.
I love the quotes of John Vianney that I've been finding... what a treasure!
