"Let the cause of schism be immediately cut off with the sword of St. Peter, that is, by a true confession of the faith in a synod, and the detestation and anathematisation of all heretics."
"The Roman Church admits to its communion none who impugn the Catholic faith."

The Purpose of the Missions

"Nothing is done by the Church that is not for the salvation of souls. The Church is not rightly portrayed if it is shown as in any way, or at any time, or in any activity, cultural, social or disciplinary, opposed to or in competition with the salvation of souls. I do not say the salvation of some souls in the shortest possible time; I do not say the break-neck making of new converts. I say the salvation of the greatest number of souls before time ceases: that is the raison d'etre of the Church and of the missions. It is a mistake to try to distinguish between them."
