“As long as man does good he forgets about himself. He’s entirely good and he loses his selfishness. When he makes the problems of others his own, he doesn’t have his own problems.” When he prayed for the sick he would say, “My God, help the sick and take away my health,” and he would accept with joy whatever sickness God allotted him.”
