God is holy; that holiness comes to earth in Christ.  He bestows it on his priests with their cooperation; they, in the measure in which they accept, contribute to making the people holy.  The people do not give the priest the special powers to sanctify which he possesses.  It is our Lord who gave these powers, and He gave them to enable the priest to make the people holy.

Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
