    The enemy is like a woman, weak in face of opposition, but correspondingly strong when not opposed. In a quarrel with a man, it is natural for a woman to lose heart and run away when he faces up to her; on the other hand, if the man begins to be afraid and to give ground, her rage, vindictiveness and fury overflow and know no limit.
    —St. Ignatius Of Loyola (1491–1556)

    We should always be prepared so as never to err to believe that what I see as white is black, if the hierarchic Church defines it thus.
    —Ignatius Of Loyola (1491–1556)
