Padre Vaillant comes out with some good ones:
Doctrine is well enough for the wise, Jean; but the miracle is something we can hold in our hands and love.
Father Joseph Vaillant in Willa Cather's Death Comes to the Archbishop is talking about the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Jean is the bishop. I think this quote is a meditation. I changed it to suit my thoughts and feelings: "Doctrine is well enough for the scholarly, but the miracle is something to hold in your heart."
