Thanks. I've always regarded the quote as a sign of saintliness.

Dorothy died so early in John Paul II’s papacy and he canonized so so many holy people. It seems that expanding canonizations was an attempt to be clear that saints are real people in a variety of walks of life. Maybe it means something different now.
