Lucifer Quote by Brian Kennelly
““Of all rulers who have been thrown from their thrones, none was mightier, or fell more spectacularly, than Lucifer. Conversely, no creature has been raised higher than Mary. Both Lucifer and Mary show in their own sphere the truth of Christ’s statement, “Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted” (Mt 23:12).””
