Actually came to know him through a quote he's famous for: "True happiness does not consist in the pleasures of the world or in earthly things, but in peace of conscience which we only have if we are pure in heart and mind." Wrote it on a sheet of paper as reminder about 14-15 years ago and it's still with me. Then I read more about him as I started training to teach the TOB to teens at my parish. And was blessed to venerate his relic at WYD Krakow last year. I share his interest in the outdoors, and his life and priorities has been such an inspiration to me and I love introducing him to the many young people I speak to. He's an excellent example of the fact that sainthood and holiness is far from boring. Bl Pier Giorgio Frassati, pray for us!
