"Certainly it is now the bishops who hold the place of the Apostles in the church. They receive the authority of binding and loosing; they have as their lot the role of governing. It is a magnificent honor, but the honor that carries with it a heavy burden."

- St. Gregory the Great, Homilies on the Gospels 2, 26, 5 (ca 509)
