“EVERYWHERE evil is undermined by good. It is only that good is undermost; and this is one of the supernatural conditions of God’s presence. As much evil as we see, so much good, or more, we do know assuredly lies under it, which, if not equal to the evil in extent, is far greater in weight, and power, and worth, and substance. Evil makes more show, and thus has a look of victory; while good is daily outwitting evil by simulating defeat.”

— Fr. Frederick Faber, Bethlehem (Tan Books, 1978); p. 191
