You can watch Cardinal Dolan’s homily from this morning’s Mass at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral here. 

In today’s first reading, Saint Paul tells us everything passes away, even the great things in life. However, in the Gospel Jesus speaks of what will endure. 23 years ago, we saw a bit of each, didn’t we? On 9/11, we saw thousands of innocent lives lost, but we also saw noble, heroic virtue. 

In his remarks after his official inauguration as Notre Dame's new president, Father Dowd quoted Father Hesburgh, who asked, "If we're afraid to be different from the world, how can we make a difference in the world?"
