โMaryโs whole life has been signed by the idea of service.โ With his fiat, he intimately associated with the divine will and contributed positively to the work of redemption. Thus the legionary, from his promise, which is like the pronunciation of his personal fiat, prepares to serve in union with Mary. It is a conscientious and voluntary service; it is a joyful and unconditional service, completely at the disposal of Mary. Certainly all that can contribute to the work of Mary will be very little; she will have to be that great cause that drives men to conversion; but she accepts the small contribution of the legionary, who constitutes a collaborator of the colossal enterprise committed to the salvation of souls". -Fr. Delfรญn Castaรฑon, OP
"Toda la vida de Marรญa ha estado signada por la idea de servicio. Con su fiat se asociรณ รญntimamente a la voluntad divina y colaborรณ positivamente a la obra de la redenciรณn. Asรญ el legionario, desde su promesa, que es como el pronunciamiento de su fiat personal, se apresta a servir en uniรณn con Marรญa. Es un servicio consciente y voluntario; es un servicio gozoso e incondicional, totalmente a disposiciรณn de Marรญa. Ciertamente que todo lo que pueda aportar a la obra de Marรญa serรก muy poca cosa; ella habrรก de ser esa gran causa que mueva a la conversiรณn a los hombres; pero acepta la pequeรฑa contribuciรณn del legionario, a quien constituye en colaborador de la empresa colosal empeรฑada en la salvaciรณn de las almas".
