'Just as salt gives flavour to food and light illumines the darkness,
so too holiness gives full meaning to life and makes it reflect God’s glory.
How many saints, especially young saints, can we count in the Church’s history!
In their love for God their heroic virtues shone before the world,
and so they became models of life which the Church has held up for imitation by all...
Through the intercession of this great host of witnesses, may God make you too,
dear young people, the saints of the third millennium!'
