"All the children of Adam- all human beings, at all times, and in all places- are in the kingdom business, shopping night and day for the mystery of the city of God. Oh, true enough, like any random group of shoppers, they have their share of gullibility, questionable taste, and proneness to buy what's in the store rather than wait for what they're really looking for. But they are shopping. And they are, as often as not, quite willing to put their money where their heart's desire is. They are not simply a bunch of cheapskates; and they do not, given half a chance to see some first-rate goods, simply fob off the storekeeper with an 'Oh, we're just looking'...
...It is catholic not only because the mystery it proclaims is already hidden everywhere but because the market for the mystery is a catholic market".
