If we want a splendorous and magnificent order in the Reign of Mary, we must come to know the ultimate things there are to know about the order of the Universe.

Paraphrasing Camoes, as the Revolution has taken disorder unto caverns never before visited, caverns so deep, it is necessary that order enter into these caverns in order to expel the Revolution. If this doesn’t happen, we will not have true order.

In material things, the foundation is on the bottom. But in spiritual things, the foundation is on top.

Still, everything taken to its purest essence must have its feet on the ground.

True culture is present only when in the people there are reflections so, so elevated that they are lost in the clouds.

Medieval Christendom was not just any order, or merely one of may possible orders. It was the realization, in the circumstances inherent to the times and places, of the only authentic order among men, namely, Christian civilization.

Having begun in the fifteenth century, the destruction of the disposition of men and things according to the doctrine of the Church, the teacher of Revelation and Natural Law, is almost complete today. This disposition of men and things is order par excellence.
