A Tipsy Monk, the Word of God, and the Papacy


I simply taught, preached, wrote God''s Word; otherwise I did nothing. And then, while I slept, or drank Wittenburg beer with my Philip and my Amsdorf, the Word so greatly weakened the papacy that never a prince or emperor did such damage to it. I did nothing. The Word did it all.
- Martin Luther
