It is a long-established principle of the Church, never to completely drop from her public worship any ceremony, object, or prayer which once occupied a place in that worship.
-Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
For the Church, precisely because She embraces all nations and is destined to endure until the end of time … Her very nature requires a language that is universal,
immutable, and non-vernacular.
-Pope Pius XI
The Latin language is assuredly worthy of being defended with great care instead of being scorned; for the Latin Church it is the most abundant source of Christian civilization and the richest treasury of piety…. We must not hold in low esteem these traditions of your fathers, which were your glory for centuries.
-Pope Paul VI
