Saint of the Day Quote: Blessed Catherine Jarrige

“Citizen if I had a wife like that I’d drown her in the nearest river.” 

“Citizen so would I!”

During the French Revolution Blessed Catherine Jarrige helped many priests to escape from Revolutionary authorities.  On one occasion she began berating a disguised priest as if she was a shrewish wife to throw off a suspicious Revolutionary soldier and the above brief conversation then took place between the soldier and the disguised priest.
