St. Catherine of Sienna's Letter to the Popes of Vatican II
St. Catherine of Sienna's first letter to Pope Gregory XI:
"Oh, sweet and true knowledge... if he loves himself for his own sake and not for God - -he cannot do other than ill, and all virtue is dead in him. Such a one is like a woman who brings forth her sons dead."
(The Letters of Saint Catherine of Sienna, page 86)
