St Thomas Aquinas

Far be it that anyone should try to defraud Mary of her privileges of divine grace and of her special glory. For by a certain singular favor of our Lord and God, and of her Son, she must be confessed to be the most true and most blessed Mother of God.
St Vincent of Lerins

St Peter Chrysologus
May 14th, 2011
What a wonder is your Mother! The Lord entered her, and became a Servant; the Word entered her, and became silent within her; Thunder entered her, and His voice was still; the Shepherd of all entered her, and He became a Lamb.
St Ephraem the Syrian

Mary symbolizes the Church, which, espoused to Christ as a virgin, has conceived us of the Holy Spirit, and as a virgin has also given us birth.
St Isidore of Sevilla
May 12th, 2011
Hail to you forever, O virgin mother of God, our unceasing joy. You are the pearl of great price that belongs to the kingdom; the fate of every victim, the living altar of the bread of life. Hail, O treasure of God. Hail, O fount of the Son’s love for man.
St Methodius of Olympus

He willed us to have all through Mary.
St Bernard of Clairvaux
