[quote]The castle into which Jesus entered at the moment of His Incarnation was Mary, His virginal Mother. Around every castle is a wall and on every wall a tower. The wall which protected Mary was Her virginity; the tower defending the castle, Her humility. The tower was straight and long. It was straight because She looked up solely to Him, Who regarded Her humility; long, because in the word of humility ‘Behold the handmaid of the Lord’ She became the Queen of Heaven. — St. Anthony of Padua [/quote]
