More Wisdom from Joseph Ratzinger

What we eat in Holy Communion is not a piece of matter: it is the Son of God who became man. Eating this new food therefore does not mean eating something; it is an encounter of my I with the I of the Son of God, it is a heart-to-heart communion.

—Joseph Ratzinger

from Teaching and Learning the Love of God
