- 2007 July 29, Lawrence Downes, “The Pope Reopens a Portal to Eternity, via the 1950s”, in New York Times[1]:
- It becomes as lullingly familiar as a weekly drive to a relative’s house: opening prayers like quick turns though local streets, long freeway stretches of readings, homily and Eucharistic prayers, the quietude of communion and then — thanks be to God — the final blessing, a song and home to pancakes and the Sunday comics.
