“No one in the world can change Truth. What we can do and and should do
is to seek truth and to serve it when we have found it.
The real conflict is the inner conflict. Beyond armies of occupation
and the hecatombs of extermination camps,
there are two irreconcilable enemies in the depth of every soul: good and evil, sin and love.
And what use are the victories on the battlefield if we are ourselves
are defeated in our innermost personal selves?”
― St. Maximilian Kolbe,
who was killed in a Nazi concentration camp,
giving his life that another person might live,
on this day in 1941.
Today is his feast day.
