Wallace—whose inaugural speech included the line “segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever!”—liked to say that those who accuse people of being racist are “the real racists.” His spirit lives on.

“Do you want to be totally united to the Crucified? If you are serious about this, you will be present, by the power of His Cross, at every front, at every place of sorrow, bringing to those who suffer, healing and salvation.”—St Teresa Benedicta a Cruce (Edith Stein)
