Those who do not remember the past are condemned to relive it—Santavana
“…It was not possible for me to free you from the pain that you must now suffer on my account. How hard it must have been for our dear Savior when, through His sufferings and death, he had to prepare such a great sorrow for His Mother—and together they bore all of this out of great love for us sinners…And now your husband, son, son-in-law and brother-in-law greets you once more before his final journey. The heart of Jesus, the heart of Mary, and my heart are one in time and eternity…”—Franz Jägerstätter (last letter to his family)
On August 9, 1943 Franz Jägerstätter was beheaded by the Nazis.
