"The true wisdom is to be always seasonable, and to change with a good grace in changing circumstances."

It is not the man who is responsible for the offerings as they become Christ's Body and Blood; it is Christ Himself who was crucified for us. The standing figure belongs to the priest who speaks these words. The power and the grace belong to God. 'This is My Body,' he says. And these words transform the offerings.

— Saint John Chrysostom
