PQOTD: "Miracles are hard to come by in Britain."
Original Post: Today's papist quote of the day originated - allegedly - from Il Papa himself:
The source is a UK tabloid. I think a UK tabloid getting a story straight would be a minor miracle in itself."Friction even seemed to emerge as the Pope and Prime Minister appeared in public for the cameras. Mr Blair, joined by his wife Cherie, presented Benedict with a framed set of three antique pictures of Cardinal Newman, who converted in 1845 after more than 20 years in the Church of England clergy and is now a candidate for sainthood.
Mrs Blair said: "I believe you are very familiar with him and he is on the journey to sainthood."
To which the Pope responded: "Yes, yes, although it is taking some time - miracles are hard to come by in Britain."
