"To those who respond to the beauty of [the Church's liturgical prayers], saying them is like singing a favorite love song, the repetition of which only adds to its depth, its rhythm becoming like a heartbeat of love itself. Each time the believer says, "Lord, have mercy" with real ardor, it is like one more wave in the ocean of his relationship to Christ, just as in human love each "I love you" is richer in meaning because it includes more moments of misunderstanding which have been overcome by love."
