Bernardin of Chicago


''I've been called a reconciler, and in all the places where I've administered - in Charleston, Atlanta, Washington, Cincinnati and (Chicago) - God has used me to help create a climate that is more hospitable, a climate that tends to bring people together. And if I have succeeded in doing that, always as a ministry of the Lord's hand, then that's OK with me."

- Cardinal Joseph Louis Bernardin, October 1996
