"In the world of spiritual endeavor;
as in the world of athletic competition,
we must learn never to be content
with the level we have reached
but, with the help of God
and with our own determined efforts,
we must aim at ever greater heights,
at continual improvement,
so that we
may in the end reach maturity,
‘the measure of the stature
of the fullness of Christ.’"Pope John XXIII
