The Mass and the Saints - respect in the Church!

“For a church is not a barber's shop or a chemist's or a market stall: it is the dwelling of angels and of archangels; it is the kingdom of God; it is heaven itself. If someone gave you entrance into heaven, you would not dare to speak a word, not even if you should see your own brother or father. Likewise in the church, only spiritual things may be spoken, for this is heaven.”

—St. John Chrysostom
Quoted in “The Mass and the Saints”
