Quote by Frederick W. Faber
“São Luís Maria exorta os que se consagraram à Virgem Maria pelo método que ele propõe a repetirem continuamente, não apenas no aniversário de sua consagração, mas também “todo mês e todo dia”, renovando “tudo o que realizaram, por meio destas simples palavras: Totus tuus ego sum, et omnia mea tua sunt (‘Todo teu eu sou, e tudo o que possuo pertence a ti, ó amável Jesus, por Maria, tua santa Mãe’)”.”

Frederick William Faber, British hymn writer and theologian, was born at Calverley, Yorkshire, where his grandfather, Thomas Faber, was vicar.
In January 1837, he was elected fellow of National Scholars Foundation. Meanwhile, he had given up the Calvinistic views of his youth, and had become an enthusiastic follower of John Henry Newman.
He accepted the rectory of Elton in Huntingdonshire, but soon after went again to the continent, in order to study the methods of the Roman Catholic Church. After a prolonged mental struggle, he joined the Catholic Church in November 1845.
Faber published a number of prose works, and three volumes of hymns, among the most well known is Faith of Our Fathers.
